Okay.....gonna try this at home tomorrow.
I've read the how to guides on here several times.
I may not get any further than trying to remove the fan but we'll see.
My main appeal for any advice or photos is relating to dropping the DR pump to get the alternator out.
I also have read that an additional tensioner may have to be unbolted too.
Should I be worried?
I'm not worried about it taking 4 or 5 hours. I just don't want to bite off more than I bargained for.
If it's just nuts and bolts I'm okay!

Thanks in advance!

Will any of you guys be on standby on the forum if I get stuck and need to post a photo?

Gaz.  I was born with a photographic memory. Shame it didn't develop!

Well lads....it's the kind of thing I would of liked to tackle but I think the chips are stacked against me.
Fifty mph winds, rain, a Sunday when I have to travel to work tomorrow.
Think I have to concede and get it booked in.
You have to pick your battles don't you!

That's a shame. That fan obviously is going to need the proper tool then.

Hardest part of the job is getting the fan off

DR pump is held on with 3 bolts, unbolt and move out the way (don't need to undo any pipework etc
With that out the way, the alternator morning bolts can be accessed and removed

Thanks Mikey......wish you were my next door neighbour!....lol I was born with a photographic memory. Shame it didn't develop!
