gazza1286 160 Posted May 29, 2006 Share Posted May 29, 2006 If you have a Haynes Manual. The procedure is relatively complicated and fiddly. I did mine 3 months ago. You MUST have the following tools otherwise don't start:For the pulley wheel which MUST be unbolted from the pump10mm ring spanner (they must be similar to these http://www.machinemart.co.uk/product.asp?p=040212890as you need an offset. A socket set will not fit. If you 'round' these bolts you will have to drop the engine!!!A pulley straphttp://www.machinemart.co.uk/product.asp?p=040211435Is a must (otherwise use locking pliers).If you take your time it's do-able Quote Link to post Share on other sites
