Default Belt Up !!

Another job ticked off today ! Timing belt and tensioner replaced today along with all front oil seals ( cam,intermediate and crank ) Also new alternator and power steering belt.

The adjuster for the alternator belt was seized up so that had to come off and freed up as it wasn't possible to adjust the belt properly.

Trigger is just about there mechanically now. All I have left to do is in tank fuel pump,fuel filter and cleaning/replacement of the oil separator box. I'm sure there will be something else like dizzy cap and rotor arm oh and possibly coolant temp sensor etc etc etc...........

So from getting a free car from a forum member ( thanks again Stuart ! )

I have replaced

Front discs,pads and calipers
Handbrake cable ( all for MOT )
Air Filter
Oil filter & Oil
NGK Plugs
4 Goodyear Vector all season tyres
Complete exhaust system
Fresh Coolant
Timing belt
Timing belt tensioner
All front oil seals
Power Steering Belt
Alternator Belt
Heater blower motor
Headlight bulbs
Rocker cover gasket
Oil filler cap seal

I also fitted Egg Crate Grille and clear indicators

Add to that cleaning throttle body,Idle valve and all pcv hoses

Have to say I'm pretty smitten with the old girl

Few pics of her journey back
