Edd-XS 0 Posted January 11, 2007 Right, how do I fit the bloody thing?? Ive done a search as I tried using my 8v tension bracket, and although looking like the exact right thing, it didnt line up properly, it angled up too high and sat too far to the right. Miles has kindly just sent me an Mi tension bracket, but i cant see how this is supposed to mount to the block? The 8v one had a right angled plate at the bottom, but the Mi one doesnt? From the search's ive done it looks like it may fit to a PAS something-or-rather, but I have no PAS bits on this engine, although I think it may have had the stuff fitted when it was in the 405... help! pics would be appreciated too Ta, Edd Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Super Josh 4 Posted January 11, 2007 Edd, Is this a 1.9 Mi lump? Not answering your problem but the PAS on the 1.9 Mi is driven off the exhaust camshaft, so the alternator belt only drives the alternator and the AC compressor, if fitted. If it's a 2.0 Mi XU10, then thqat's completely different and the PAS pump is driven by the alternator belt. Josh Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
jonnie205 1 Posted January 11, 2007 There is no right angled part on the mi16, the lower stay of the bracket is an m10 tapping in the side of the block above the sump, should be easy to see Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Edd-XS 0 Posted January 11, 2007 ahhhhh ok jonnie205 that sounds about right Just the only mount point I saw was on the front of the block and assumed it fitted the same way as the 8v. Hoping to get this engine running on my two days off on monday and tue next week. only taken me 17 months so far... lol Edd Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
