If you're in doubt, fit pulley, fit belt, fit lower cover and fit pulley. Then time cams in using outer marks on cover.

Peter, with all due respect - i don't require your help, the op does. So instead of answering my questions, answer his! I know the differences but after almost 15 years of messing with these cars and the problems that arise i have learnt to always ask the simple questions first , even if they seem stupid :wink:

My most sincere apologies :roll:

So why ask an irrelevant question? If OP needs help, i learned many years ago to keep things simple and to the point.

It's certainly not irrelevant just because you deem it so. I realise you see yourself as a kind of mr2 god and I'm certain you know more than me and more than most..but that's no excuse for arrogance. Concentrate on helping the op and all is well.

Wow, you've came across as a right xxxx there, precisely the reason I rarely post here. He answered both you and the op, your reply was needless, you were just having a go.

It's you that came across as arrogant, not Peter.
