Thanks mate, I didn't even think about you for parts! But I have this kit on order.

Seriously struggling to remove the crank pulley. Can't get the tapered cone to release.

Had a major win today and with help from a bigger hammer, got the crank pulley off.
Pulled the timing gears and backing plate off and it was very obvious where the leak was coming from so this hasn't all been a waste of time.
Now it's time to start cleaning the surfaces ready to be put back together.
Tore the bloody sump gasket though when I was pulling off the timing cover so will have to change that out too now.

What's the rubber on the back of the balancer look like?

[Winnie]

Visually it looks fine. I've had 2 mates who are mechanics look at it and say there's nothing wrong with it but didn't do anything other than look at it.

I guess you can give it a clean with WD40 and a wire brush and see if there are any cracks, but if a mechanic says it's ok, then it must be ok.

Pretty interesting to see the not so simple timing gear inside a TD42.

Is this a turbo TD42 or an NA one?

It's an NA engine with after market turbo.
