Make sure you torque up the pulleys correctly as well this is very important.

With the same tool you've mentioned.

We're arm wrestling next time we meet........

Ive got the camshaft locking jig and the crackshaft locking pin. I've also got a universal snap-on pulley locking tool, should do the job?

 

[Fred@BTM]

inlet is 100NM
exhaust is (i think is 25/30 NM + 86deg +/-16deg could be wrong though)

 

[Fred@BTM]

well the renault cam pulley tool is a bit odd i found at first, as its still possible to move the pulleys even when you've cranked the locking tool up tight

 

[Matteh]

is the pulley locking tool to stop the system 'flexing' as you tighten it up?


how do you avoid that when tightening the crankshaft pulley?

 

[Summeh]

I'm failing to see how slackening everything can be of any advantage? :S Is it a quicker/easier method or something?

Once the tensioning of procedure 2 (no slacken method) is complete, and the engine has been turned over a good few times, if everything lines up correctly, then surely everything is fine?

sexy vibrating snap on torque wrench has its uses!

i remember that one lol

 

[Summeh]

anyone got the part numbers for the pulley seals then? I'd like to have them just incase I do the 'slacken ervything' method do GSF/ECP sell these or is it a reno only part?
