Completing reconditioned engine

Information:
Some modifications are required in order to replace the old, removed engine with a new one.
Starting point for re-fitting work: Old engine is secured to assembly support and the new one is in the transport cradle.
At higher milages, components (cooling hoses, clips, etc.) must be checked for damage and replaced if necessary.
Seals must be checked and replaced if necessary.

1. Remove numerous transport plugs for water and vacuum connection pieces of the new engine.
2. Check that all leads and hoses between the engines have been re-fitted and no component has been forgotten.
3. Depending on the transmission version, the drive plate must be re-fitted.
