Right then, I changed the big heavy lump in my 90 over the weekend with the help of woods767 (pics to follow) however there are a few issues/questions i need to sort out.
The flywheel housing to block - down the bottom of the join there is a reasonable sized gap, is this normal? I need to take it off again anyway as the good looking crank seal turned out to be not so good!! Should I change the gasket in between the 2?
Would not having a good earth connection from the block to the chassis cause the alternator to not work properly and for the oil pressure sensor thingamajig light not to come on with the charge light before turning the engine on? The engine definitely has oil pressure as it was working ok in the disco.
