Damn sodding thing
ok, so I can get to the bottom bolt no problemo, but how the f*ck to get the top one out?
Can see it or feel it - is it a torx like the bottom one, or a proper bolt?

From past experience I'd say it was a hexagonal socket head (Allen) bolt, I can't remember just what size though, but 3/8" drive adaptor with about 6" or so extension and ratchet is what you need to undo it from just in front of the starter where you have room to move the ratchet.

cheers Martin,
figured my 1/2in set might be giving me grief on the angles

One thing I forgot; as it's a Torx bolt in the bottom, the top will probably be the same. Doh!

I'd second the allen bolt theory, and sorry, can;t remmeber the size. It is, as you say, a sod.
