The engine is back in the van

For a long time now I had problems with the wiring of the van. I had the idiot light constantly on and also had some battery charging problems. So last week I removed the engine and this allow me to tidy up the electric connection in the engine bay.
 This morning I was ready to drop en engine back. With my new jack it took me only 10 min.
 Everything is in place, just need to tighten up the bots.
 Jobe done, Everything is working. The idiot light is now off. I had a bad connection on the alternator wire behind the engine.

Engine removal with my new Liftmaster jack.

After a very heavy snow fall my compagny close down and send us home. I took the opportunity to try for the first time my new Liftmaster jack. My engine needed to come out as I wanted to check the electrics.
Nice view of today's snow

Engine is now out. Lets have a look at this wireing...

Liftmaster Jack

Today I received my xmas present from my dad. It's a Liftmaster Jack. That will be perfect to remove and put back the engine on the van. It's capable of lifting 650Kg. Should be ok...
 
Looks good.
 
Should only take a few minutes to remove the engine.
 
The bumper and rear valence are new removed.
