Crank Shaft pulley bolt TD27

[Pinelli]

Can anyone confirm the size of the socket needed to manually turn over a TD27? I've lost my calipers, but seems to be about 40mm. Would this be right?

 

[Pinelli]

Well, I bought the 40mm socket and it fits, with a bit of gentle persuasion.

Now I just need a 3/4 inch breaker bar.

Replacing seals while its out of the car ?

 

[Pinelli]

You know, I really should, shouldn't I. I'll add it to the list.

Not something I've done before. Is it just the seals at the front and rear of the crankshaft?

 

[Dave]

Should be only them and the sump gasket, suppose it wouldn't hurt to do the timing case gasket aswell.

 

[Pinelli]

Very good. I've pulled off the EGR, so I'm also going to pull off the intake manifold and give it a clean up as well.
