SLW42 Posted April 25, 2012 Author Report Share Posted April 25, 2012 I have been plodding away at the little things that have been annoying me with this car.... So far I have changed the front door cards from the flu ones to fairmont ones to remove the winder hole from the door card, when you swap them you need to put in these stupid 'scrivet' things.... Me being abit more ghetto and poor used corolla door handle doobys and bashed them in place and it works just as well :) Pics..... Also while the car is off the road I figured I'd have a look at the cam timing, which I know has moved cause it is A LOT slower than what it should be, so I got all the p/s, aircon pump, belt tensioner and alternator off it was just the harmonic balancer left to be removed..... So I set the engine at TDC, then set about pulling the harmonic balancer off, undid the crank bolt, got the balancer puller onto it and started undoing it only to find the balancer wasn't moving.... Afew hits with a 4lb hammer and tried again.... Still not moving :/ I cracked the Shits many many times and walked away from it then came back to it today and had another 30goes at it and it still wasn't moving so now I need to get a different style of puller to continue I really hate this car atm Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
