techy advice required


Recommended Posts

Posted

Im going to change the clutch on my classic and several other bits and pieces (myself and a Polish mechanic who works with me that is). Im going to get a uprated one been advised on a Helix organic !! Where is the best / reliable supplier and also what other problems am I going to encounter when I swap over to the non standard part ? I have no problems once I get started and I know that Ive got all the little bits that I need its just the fear that Ill get 95% complete and some small 50p part stops me getting the job done!!

Doing the timing belt(100000 miles) will I need new tensioners ?

Is there a web site with the exploded drawings (Haynes manual styley) ?

I know some of the mechanic types will be pissing them selves  laughing at this but a little helping advice is all that is asked for!

Personnaly i would change the tensioner at 100000 miles

What year of car regarding the manual?

tensioner is usually sound. unfortunatly you can only feel idlers once your doing the job and these could need doing. get a legacy manual a lot of it is appropriate. i still refer to mine for torque settings but had a legacy before anyway.

and pumps are driven directly so some may suggest a new water pump but mines done 140k and no service history. did nae bother. removed radiator when i did mine, gives a much better view, some professionals dont.
