300tdi Crank Locking tool...

Ah, now i am beginning to see the light.

So i can unbolt the pulley, bolt on a simple bit of flat steel bar and yank on my bolt to my hearts content??

Thats bloody brilliant, many thanks yet again.

BTW after taking the pulley off, whats left to bolt to?

the damper - now thats where it starts getting serious - get yoself a timing tool kit with puller - or else yu are looking at serious damage and expense . Ask others .

Ah i see.

Its ok i have the two pins for timing and now i know the dimensions i can easily make a puller for the damper, i have a workshop with two lathes, two milling machines, mig welding and more in it

I just presumed the pulley was integral with the damper hence the ring on the tool.

if your lucky the damper may tap off with a soft hammer the 2 i have done did anyway.

semantics? more like "errata". bet your machine shop love you :hug:

I frequently **** off all of those who work in there, but as thats only me, i don't care
