Stu Perhaps you can answer - if you cool the pully AND the crank, being that the crank is a different material (I think ) is there any chance that the crank may shrink more than the pulley?

cossy abuser, fancy taking some money off of me?

I will take along to the nurburgring trip on the 9th a large steel washer, and a set of verniers and a heat gun and can of freeze spray.

With Stu as an independant witness we will freeze the large washer and measure the ID and OD of it.

Then we will heat it up, and get Stu to measure them again.

Im perfectly prepared to wager a grand on the outcome (increase in ID), which i will post a cheque to Stu for to clear into his account
You do the same, and stu can declare a winner and give them back both of the grands.


Easy money for you surely?

Why would i want to think about the bollox he posts?

Or are you joining in against me (and all the physicists/material scientists of the world) to argue that heat makes holes in metal smaller

chip, as you argue with everyone i think i won't....today

I am not a mechanical engineer so never looked into this, not your average day interest to be fair....

usually heating things up makes it loose though......never thought about the chemisty and physics involved to be fair.

So basically you completely totally 100% agree with me in terms of everything i have said in this thread, but for some random reason that only you know about tried to imply i was wrong anyway?

Priceless dingy, im honoured mate, i thought you only put your brain into neutral when posting to Rod and kept it engaged the rest of the time more or less, but obviously its for me too now!

Karl said I could never get the power I did from my 1600cc Zetec in my hillclimb car, yet I had the graph to prove from the best rollers in the country at Days motorsport
I never had a go at Karl I just stated if that other "Bloke" wanted to spend his money there I could spend mine at GGR

You should know me by now, do what I want when I want and fuck the consequences,
This is all harmless banter except for the Tosser that had a go at my deceased sister
That added fuel to the fire, i know my methods are unconventional, but they work for me and just trying to help a fellow Ford owner
I will go back to being a lonely short person and stick to annoying people that know me, I would hate to be threatened again, eh ******?

HI - has anyone re-used there cambelt?
Mine has just had a new belt fitted about 500mls ago and I now have a leaking front crank seal so I need to remove the belt.

I'm looking to see if anyone has been in a similar situation please - thanks.

As long as the belt hasn't been contaminated by oil then it should be ok to reuse.
