It's a lot easier to get on if you remove the idler pulley.

With the standard belt I found it was a bit tight with the pulley still on, but lifted fully.

Oil Leaks

I had a perennial oil leak and I think I've found the problem. It was caused because I left out one of the bracket spacers (it had fallen on the floor after a refit and then spent a couple of years in the ashtray). I only realised that the casing can leak from this area when I left the blower on the floor during a head gasket replacement, it pissed oil everywhere overnight.

Spacers are both fitted now and I added some blue sealant too, just in case.

I had two of those on mine I believe....Didn't the bolt stick out without it?...
