How do i use the Engine Stand?

[Chanrevo]

I figure its so its easier to mount parts and what not, instead of going below the car, back to the hood, rinse and repeat.
So I took the entire engine apart on the car-lift and now when I try to "add engine to crate" it tells me theres no parts to work with. "Create new engine" is also locked.
So what do I use the engine stand for? I'm only level 9, I bought a car from the barn to try and sell later, for context(Why I have the engine out)..

Put the block back into the car. Now, move the crane to that lifter. On the crane, select "Remove engine". On the engine stand, select "add engine".

You will now see the block on the stand. Left click on it, and remove it. Repair all parts.

You can now choose to click on the space where the block was on the stand, and rebulid the engine. Or, if the vehicle status shows possible engine swaps, you can click on the stand and select "Create". Choose an engine type that is compatible with available swaps. Build this engine and select "Remove from stand". On the crane, select "Install engine".

Voila!

Keep grinding. You need to be level 12 in order to create new engines. Not sure about repairing though.

Did you purchase the skills at the toolbox? You need to unlock it by selecting the appropriate skill branch prerequisites--forget which ones but, you can hover over the ghosted higher level stuff to see descriptions.
