Cool little spot this morning!

Think they should be done to around 125Nm so maybe just wasn't quite tight enough! Hopefully you've avoided any serious damage. Here's a list of the torque settings for the belts and pulleys, if you haven't already got it: Belts & Pulleys...

Have you tried re-timing it and then compression testing it? It might've just jumped a tooth, seeing as the compression figures are all even. Should be around 170-180psi when timed correctly.

Can’t be many of these left now

Figured it was finally time to get mine out of the shed and taxed this year. Lets hope the sun keeps shining like it did today!

Potentially replacement power steering hoses?

Apologies for this rubbish picture but it's the best I could find! This is from a 182 but it shouldn't matter:

Picture of the tool in this thread: https://cliosport.net/threads/installation-of-crankshaft-oil-seal.848685/ Definitely seems like something that could be replicated fairly easily.

I'm glad someone else said this. Seems really expensive for what works out at about 2 hours total time on track. Plus if you've got a bunch of whoppers in your group, you're stuck with them all day.

@Brigsy would probably be your man for this!

Ah right I get you. Does it have any adjustability in it? I'm running the PMS aircon delete kit and they say to check the tension and adjust regularly.

How old is the aux tensioner on it? If that's seized up it may have been causing the belt to slip.

I usually just use a bit of hosepipe with a funnel shoved in the top. Not fancy but you can easily feed the hosepipe into the fill hole without too much fuss.

Cheaper than getting another recovery truck out again 🤷‍♂️
