Default 4x4 cossie help

does anyone have a cossie crank pulley puller tool as i am having difficulty removing the pulley wheel off my crank shaft. Local to romford essex

failing that, does anyone have a link to what one looks like or maybe a link to somewhere i can buy one online as i need it this week and might need it again anyways

i have already managed to destroy my crank position sender in the process, and might have cracked my radiator along the way too - extremely pissed off as it was a new rad lol!

oh well the joys of cosworth repair!!!

cheers

timbo

P.S - im tight at the moment due to bank problems so the cheaper the better for sensor and puller - any help appreciated tho!

also i have been told its common for cossie engines to have some water wheeping out of the front corner by th eexhaust manifold on the head - is this right?

thinking that when i refit the head, sticking a bit of well seal on it to prevent this happening agia - i know if its skimmed etc it shouldnt happen again when torqued down properly, but i dont wanna have ot do the job again!

If you seal it, chances are you will have to do the job again sooner than if you did it properly in the first place

Good luck with the pulley, while you are waiting for a puller, etc... put loads of WD40 or similar on there to help it ease out.
