The spacers are needed with mine, but its not alot. I went and got 2 different sized spacers/washers (24mm & 28mm ID) from the local Farm store, costing a whole whopping 62p for 4 lol

Im having problems with my tensioner tho. Its a 1.3 tensioner, but its sitting too close to the water pump wheel. The belt could fit through ok, but the guy doing the work said he wouldnt be happy leaving it as it is as the belt could get jammed or snap because of it. He is now fabricating a new bracket for it.

I dont know as to why the 2 are so close as i have never heard of this before, but what he reckons is that its a possiblity that the holes for the water pump have been placed wrongly in the block. It was a toss up of him tapping new holes in the block, or fabricating the tensioner bracket... so we chose the bracket fabrication, just in case!

Also, is there anywhere that ya can buy a zvh dipstick tube bracket? We're making one if not.
