removing engine in 600

[Mslater]

I remember it being easier than that eddie, never had to take the skids and bottom plate off mine that i can remember, the 600 has got to be the quickest engine drop of em all!

Can do it by removing the carb, exhaust then 4 bolts to the engine. Out in 5 mins but you need the tools to get into the bolts - its on an angle. If you've got a good set of 'balls' this is the quickest but I find it harder to put back in like this.

?? I'm missing something, half turns?

Like Mslaters post above and as previously posted.. I find it harder and awkward doing it your way (probably due to crap set of balls and not giving me enough angle).. thats why I take the hex out on half turns to stop scratching something.

Not saying yours is wrong or crap, Its just a personal preference doing it this way.. half do it this way and half do it your way.

I have done it the ball end driver way but I find it awkward that way.. hate taking the ball hex in and out on half turns without scratching something..

That's the bit I referred to why would you take a ball hex in and out for a half turn? The method is whatever works best for you.

Thanks for the replies, I will give the bottom plate removal a go and pick up some ball end hex keys at some point.

I use long shank straight drivers down the side of fram to remove engine bolts from mounts. Don't need ball drivers.
