Re: Timing belt in Cheshire
I have been watching this thread as well and after a good look at others comments I decided to invest in a impact wrench to do the job. All came apart very easy, I did not need to make our use a flywheel holder as I could easily hold it with one hand while I used the impact wrench with the other. Ve...
