Boot Struts

Now then gang, I need a pair of boot struts, I'm sure there is alot of info on here about the pressure and the best place to buy but I can't find the info, even in my manual, so does anyone know the best place to buy ?? EBay do 500mm universal ones but I need the pressure rating, thanks in advance 👍...

Re: Timing Belt and water pump replacement

Sorry the roller pulley pushed via the hydraulic tensioner, I seem to have a 12/14mm spring washer from somewhere.?

Re: Timing Belt and water pump replacement

Finally after 5 attempts I have the correct water pump, I've fitted that, I'm about to fit the new cambelt tensioner but I've found a 12mm spring washer?? Does this go behind the tensioner, ?? I've bought a haynes manual but it hadn't arrived yet and I was hoping to fit tonight? Cheers Mark

Yes I had to put it in a vice to slowly compress it, I can't push by hand
