orderd some moles from snapon thismorning £35 :S the grinder is looking the best way out tho lol

[MikeLMR]

I refuse to buy snap-on stuff as its too expensive for what it is IMHO. Facom is the same if not better quality for less money.

[yonner]

yes but its french

[MikeLMR]

hmmmmm tough choice American made or French made  

Can\'t say it bothers me to be honest

[yonner]

when it coems to cars i wouldnt have either thats why when it coems to tools i usualy stick to teng but there mole grips are £42 but every thing els is allot cheeper than snap onexept mole grips crow feet spaners and for some reason inperial sockets

[MikeLMR]

have to agree on the cars mate, french cars are made of tin foil and I don\'t think theres ever been a mass produced car designed and built in the US thats worth having.

1965 427 cobra.

but that\'s about it.

Ford model T was the last of the good US cars.


I find a dremel better for getting of nots and bolts. Far less likely to damage other bits.

i took my cheep dremil imitation and flatend the nut out on each side and it came of with an 11 mill spanner lol i also got the pully off but not in one peace :S


i put the belt back on used a very long bar on the alternator pully and it held it well i tryd to undo the bold and heard the "snap" thats not uncommon when tight bolts come of but when looked down saw i had snaped it in 3 places :s ahh well at least its off goan go metal ones enxt anyway i udnerstand that puting bigger pullys on are less of a drain on the engins power

Gutted:(, how did you get the rest of the pulley off? did you break it into pieces or did you somehow manage to get the nut undone?

Just interested because I still haven\'t bothered about getting the rest of the broken pulley off the p/s pump, lol.

Cheers, Paul:)
