I am trying to replace a idler pulley on my 94 SC1 and i am having problems putting the bolt in the new pulley. I heard that you have to take off the passenger side motor mount and jack up the motor and put it on this way. I was just wondering how to jack up the motor, I've never had to jack up the motor so i am wondering how to do it i don't want to mess anything up.. and ideas??

You want to have a block of wood under the oil pan so that you can spread the load and not collapse the pan. Remove th enuts from the body side of the mount and then lift the engine. See if you get enoguh room this way so that you don't need to remove the mount from the engine if you don't need to.

The reason that some poeple lift the engine is to be able to get the bolt in easier. It can be done without lifting the engine but it is tight.
