There are two access holes in the motor mount to remove two bolts on the water pump. I top bolt came out fine. The problem is that i can loosen the lower bolt but when i try to remove it the bolt is so long that it hits the other side of the motor mount and won't come out. Anyone out there that can tell me what i need to do?

thanks

You will need to remove the torque axis motor mount in order to remove the bolt and the pulley.

I have removed the four bolts that hold the motor mount to the frame and put a jack under the oil pan with a wood block in between. When I start to jack the motor the car goes up to. I also removed the two nuts under the starter that looked like it attached to the frame. What else to I need to unbolt so the motor goes up but the car does not?
