Pulling the engine

[Nelson]

It was 37 years ago when I last pulled my Sprite and I have forgotten a bit. Is removing the radiator on my Mk2 going to allow enough clearance at the front of the engine compartment or do I need to remove any of the nosepiece? I do not relish the prospect in any case.

Yes just pull the radiator out.

Piece of cake. Once you've done it you'll wonder why you feared it.

Remove the bonnet, and the radiator.

It's really not that hard, actually, kinda fun. There's a lot of info in the Wiki "Spridgets" section. Scroll down to "Technical Tips."
