Is there any reason why the vehicle could not have been driven forward in the first place thus preventing it looking like a stranded turtle and wreaking the front yard?Quote:

Replacing sump gasket I put it up on the block first, did the sealant across the rear main seal and front timing cover and then used some small cable ties in every second hole to hold the gasket in place.
Pretty sure there's a heap of tutorials on here, I've read a few used some of the tricks mention to make it easier.
Also used the cardboard template trick to number each bolt as removed then used that to do the correct tightening procedure as per RAVE
