    I wouldn't have gone for the pulley if mine wasn't wobbling and the rubber wasn't looking a bit worse for wear.

    Seems well enough made, will do the job no problems, although I've read about the rubber in the standard pulley acting as a dampener/balancer for the crankshaft somehow so I'm still a little skeptical it's good to fit one.

    Good weight saving though

    Now insured and MOT'd Was spot on on the way to the MOT, only problem was a HT lead popped off causing it to run on 3.

    Thanks to Prey off here for his role as 'support crew' following me with loads of tools and a towrope

    Yep tax on Monday and I'll try and get the engine run in in the next few weeks

    Lucky I had Alan (Prey) there to utiluse cable ties in order to professionaly fix my HT lead for me



    Noticed some paint missing from the belt cover though:



    Oops it's still hitting the bonnet:



    Opened the gap up a bit more and it clears fine again:



    Also fitted up my extinguisher:

    I like how you blame the cable ties on me... There were others on that car before I got there! Awesome that it's tested now mate tho - new leads on order yet?
