That Which Is Unholy
Wow. Need I tell you that when you put NEW bolts into
those pulleys, you douse liberally w/ anti-seize?
They come off like butter w/ the special pulley wrench
and a 3/8" breaker bar. But that is obviously *post*
mop-up (1st removal).
If you need any pulleys, let me know since we just
dropped a 1.8L that is getting picked over.
