Well done Kit, M10 it is , that slot will need to be 10mm+ too!
If you can give me the EXACT length of the spacers required I can make some of those up for you for free.

Re: 24v timing belt replacement
Duncan, I've sent pictures to you too, I would say it will be universal for the 16v pulley.

Re: 24v timing belt replacement
No , but it is explained in the Ford Workshop manual . Essentially , it is using the two 8mm bolts to restrain the pulley from turning when you undo the crankshaft nut. Ideally, the 'gap ' between the plate and the pulley should be filled with two, single spacers , so that when you do the 8mm bolts ...

Re: 24v timing belt replacement
Wow , I've managed to send you an email attachment Trevor ! A piece of 6mm thick by 60mm wide by 200mm long flat bar. Drill big hole FIRST with a holesaw , big enough for your socket to fall through. THEN drill the two 8.5mm holes at the same centres as the 8mm tapped holes in the crankshaft pulley....

Re: 24v timing belt replacement
The proper 'item' would be an ideal piece of kit for the club to own and hire out as necessary.
I made one but gave it to the next owner of M515 CEW , for free , idiot that I am.

Re: 24v timing belt replacement
The REAL risk here is trying to undo the crankshaft nut without the proper item to stop the shaft turning. Ok, you get away with that by putting the car 'in gear' without breaking anything , another lucky day. The rest is just being very careful to do everything properly. Just don't break the 6mm bo...

Re: Earthing straps ford Probe
There are hundreds of 'earth' points but the main one will be from the battery terminal to body , just follow it.

Re: Immobiliser
Have you considered , removing the immobiliser from its position , taking the lid off it , removing the plastic cover over the ignition circuit relay, jamming the contacts HARD closed with a matchstick , replace lid , replace immobiliser. That was easy and you have now made sure the ignition circuit...

Re: Rewinding rear calipers
That would have been a brake failure just when you needed to stop quickly with your foot hard on the brakes.

Re: Rewinding rear calipers
Just to expand a bit on the place and purpose of that 'snap-ring/ circlip. It MUST fit into a recess in the body of the caliper in such a place and position that it stops the adjusting screw from popping out when you stamp on the brakes. That adjusting screw has an O- Ring on it that completes the h...
