Thanks, I'll get cracking as soon as the parts come home, I am so lucky the shells are ok! With no parts here it means I can do no work on it over the weekend....I need a rest

A few more questions please...
I can't remember where the big washer goes, am I right in assuming it goes between the oil pump and crank pulley?
What is this in the sump at the bottom of the picture? (just being nosey, it isn't wired into the loom)
And what is this oil seal for?
Big fat washer sits on the crank behind the pulley and in the oil seal in the pump.
That's an oil level sensor, nobody bothers wiring them in on Novas generally.
That seal would be an oil pump seal?
(Sorry not read the rest of the thread there's 9 pages )
Check the mesh on the pickup is clean too. Looks ok but hard to see from the pic.
Thanks, I am getting geared up (bad pun) to start as soon as the stuff comes home, I expect by the weekend. Realised today I don't have an oil filter in stock...silly boy!
Oil Pressure...woo hoo!
Just a shame I cocked up putting it back together and now it's running bad! Another thread on cam timing me thinks!
got pressure
did you do the belt like this ?
Thanks for those,
the aftermarket pulley has no markings but...looking at that diagram, if I mark the pulley exactly opposite the notch in the shaft? Or, maybe the pulley bit for the altenator belt comes of to reveal marks? I'll have a look tomorrow. I also wonder if the bad running was due to not going for two months and the engine bay including elctrics getting soaked tonight?
No, get the engine set to tdc, then mark the bottom pulley where the marker is on the cam belt backing plate.
I had to do the same cause of the stupid alloy pulleys.
