scoobydo123 Posted August 14, 2022 Share Posted August 14, 2022 Just done the timing belt everything went well until I came to try and fit the stretch belts back on. The crank pulley had two belts on. Back belt drives water pump alternator and power steering front belt drives the ac compressor. Anyone got any tips for getting them back on? This is聽 now holding me up finishing the job 馃槥 have seen a tool that looks like it bolts to waterpump pulley and that walks it on but price not so good. I know when I done a fiesta the new belt came with a piece of metal that slipped on the crank to pull the belt on but this was a single track pulley.聽 Thanks in advance Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

scoobydo123 Posted August 15, 2022 Author Share Posted August 15, 2022 Just as an update for others who stumble across this. I ordered the Dayco kit from Euro's and it came with the above mentioned install tools. So you get the 2 belts and the 2 tools for 43.99. Job done and fired up after the timing belt change. 聽 Have got an oil leak that is dripping down onto the compressor was already wet with oil there wil post up some pictures but left phone at home so cannot do that now. Will start a new thread. 聽 聽 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
