Thank you very much for these, although unfortunatly they do not fit the tdv6! But we did finally manage to get it off using a homemade thing instead.

How/Who do i give these back to? Or shall i hang on to them till i come to a meet?

I thought these were bought specifically for the TDV6, somebody better tell Jimbo.

Neil will be along to let you know what to do with them.

The holes on the locking spanner dont match up with the bolt holes on the pulley.

I made this with a bit of gash steel I had lying around the workshop
, works fine also made an extension for the 36mm wrench. Much easier if you have mate to hold one whist you do the other, my disco 3 is a left hand thread. Great tool as you often need to take fan off for cam belt, water pump, alternator etc Hope it helps? Stuart
