Belt Installation

Quick update.

 

Whilst scratching about on Sunday, Carlton X (A VX220 refugee on here) come over for a nose and to say hey.

 

Here he is, with his rather bright VX220. His face seems to say ' that's never going to run Bis!' Oh ye of little faith :(

The belt installation is actually a very simple process.

 

All you need is a suitably length 14 inch spanner latched onto the pre-tensioner wheel and pull towards towards the front of the car.

 

What this does, is move the whole assembly forward and allow the belt to be wrapped around the pre-tensioning wheel (after being threaded through the other wheels) and once released, it will hold the belt in place.

Nothing more to it. Its as simple as that.

 

Job done! :D

Thanks bud. It will soon be time for a return visit for the clam installation :)

 

Oh, I managed to insist, as the man of the house you understand, that it remained in the kitchen for a good....24 hours! I think that was purple heart stuff :)
