Right - now I have sorted the focus it is time for a new thread.

I have done the timing belt twice on mine now and the worst part is
always holding the crankshaft vibration damper/pulley whilst undoing
the crankshaft bolt and then when re-tightening it. I have been using
a modified camshaft holding tool but it really is not great and
wonered if anyone knew of an'official' tool or anything else they use?

I just have a friend sit in the drivers seat and put the car in gear
and hold the brakes down until I can break it loose,  Im sure you
could replace your friends with a 2x4
