The PTS mount uses a friction plate to hold the engine in place.

Unlike other mounts, the engine is NOT screwed down.

Normally loosening two of the screws on opposite sides of the engine is enough to free the friction plates.

You should not need to remove the remote needle valve assembly at all. At worst merely unscrew the nipple closest to the rear left ( as viewed from the top ) screw.

The muffler however does have to be removed.
