Taking out the engine for the 3rd time!!!!!!

10 days before loading date .... the engine developed an ominous "tuk tuk tuk" (the scientific description) knocking sound.    Entry through the sump did not reveal the problem and the engine had to come out for the third time!!!

Were we really going to go on the trip?

A quick call to carsuk to check on airfreight pricing confirmed that we would rather work through the night........

Robert, taking the engine out......
