SPGTi 2 Posted May 15, 2007 What diameter is the max -min people have used on the crank pulley wheel ? How have they attached them ? Where have they got them from ? Any other tips appreciated. Steve Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

petert 600 Posted May 15, 2007 Why not just use the standard Motronic trigger? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
MartinM 0 Posted May 15, 2007 5.75" Open up the hole (about another 1mm) so the crank bolt goes through. Use plenty of Loctite under the bolt head and on the thread and do it up tight and a half when you've got the alignment correct. Mine never moved in a year's road rallying....

SPGTi 2 Posted May 16, 2007 Why not just use the standard Motronic trigger? I presume this is the ring gear fitted on the flywheel. I would need to find a suitable flywheel (I am on Jetronic) and as my bottom end / flywheel is lightened and balanced either get it redone or not bother with it anymore. I just see installing the 36-1 wheel on the crank pulley the easier (cheaper) option. Martin / Mad Did you turn down the spacer / washer by the 5mm the trigger wheel introduces ? I was thinking whether it would be possible to tap the centre washer on the crank pulley and use a grub screw to help fix the trigger wheel, any comments ? Do you have any pics of your VR sensor mounted ? Steve Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

MartinM 0 Posted May 19, 2007 <<Martin / Mad Did you turn down the spacer / washer by the 5mm the trigger wheel introduces ? >> Sort of - I made another one about half thickness and kept the original for when I removed it.... ....which I did (sold the car) ....so no pics I'm afraid It was a marvellous contraption of 1" angle mounted on the alternator bolts and the centre bolt that holds to cam belt cover on Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
