The correct size for the crankshaft pulley bold was 27mmm
just as it was prviously stated.

"It's a 27mm. Like the other poster, I've used a 1/2" socket with a
three foot breaker bar and a three foot section of pole-vaulting pole
at the end of that."

However, I am going with the 3/4" 27mm socket..

Btw.
Anybody having access to a local Harborfreigt Store miight
want to look around there sometimes.

I have become addicted to some of
their bargains. I guess it is in the genes.
Marti-

Sounds great marti!!! thanks for confirming that it is a 27mm. :-)

so you are back rolling in it now?

Yeah I have been using my HF concrete mixer and creating a driveway to park
my vehicles.
I have two HF stores that are local to me and have been to both! I try to
limit my spending habits in those stores! lol

later,
dave

I think I have to wait for a week or so going
back to my Audi, due to an interruption:

To-day I had a drug-eluding Cypher Stent
put into one of my coronary arteries.

Procedure was faster than repacing the timing belt
but much more expensive. But now that pump is
working properly!
