Day 72, Friday, October 21, Whitehorse ...the engine removed

My 3.9 litter engine just after it was removed from the Defender to be soon replaced by a 4.6 liter.

Unfortunately, while the engine was being removed, Olaf (on the left) discovered that six additional parts are needed.  It is hoped that Brad was able to get them off to FedEx in time for delivery on Monday.  If not, another delay will occur. But there is some slack time remaining before the 10/31 ferry leaves.

The good news is that a serious head gasket leak was discovered in the removed engine, meaning i clearly needed a new engine anyway.

P.s. That's Travis, the shop owner, behind the engine.
