I ended up grinding the bolt heads off, there was about 5mm bolt to get hold of with mole grips and surprisingly they came out easy.How did you remove the damaged timing case bolts in the end?
Ive done it the other way, wished I hade seen this erliar. Anyway I locked the pump in place and took it off with the timing tool so hopefully it will be OK. Got crank and pistons out, end of crank at flywheel end is a bit crusty, not sure what that is, hope it has not damaged it. now for the job I hate to clean everything up. Think Turners prices have gone uo since then, will see what I need then decide where to order from.I would leave pump on for now , if you rotate crank until all the timing marks line up ,then you can insert the locking tool in pump then release the tensioner wheel to remove belt , then you can unbolt pistons and push them out top of block with wood end of hammer. Then the main caps can be removed
These are the bits I got 6 years ago from turner engineering, but check a few sizes ie crank diameter to ensure stdView attachment 341266View attachment 341267
Looks like that has had water in there, if keeping it I would get a machine shop to take a look at it.Bit worried about the crank at flywheel end wondering if it needs grinding or not or if its to far gone, the rest is OK.
Any Thoughts ?
