lol.....

Been meaning to do these two for a while now, but have been putting it off cos I knew what a pain in the asre it would be...

Matrix didnt appear to be leaking, but sometimes smelt a little of antifreeze when I put the blowers on, so was probably only a matter of time, Clutch rachet occasionally "clicked" too, so thought better to replace as a matter of course too...

Ford list two rachets for the ECos, picked em both up, spent a couple of hours stripping it all out, only to find the rachets werent the same as the one in there .... both new ones were longer, so I just put in the shorter one and kept my fingers crossed...

BOY was the a pain in the arse to do, as far as I could see the heater box had to come down anyway to change the rachet couldnt slide the bar out far enough with it in place..

Shouldve asked beforehand, but any tips on this job, whats the labour time for these two then... took me about 6 £cukin hours, including some alarm loom tidying behind the dash and drinking 2 cups of coffe and swearing alot and sweating my arse off pmsl

Still its all done now
