tool for removing Pinto Engine Timing Belt Tensioner Pulley
hi guys, i've just got a new timing belt kit, got most things off including the harmonic balancer, the kit came with a new Timing Belt Tensioner Pulley and two seals, where can i get the fine star allen key tool from? and what size is it? and the best way to get the main seal out?
cheers

If you google inx19L 8-100 that will show you the socket you require, it’s a ZXN m8 socket, where are you located?

I've used a 6mm hex allen key many times without any damage.

thanks guys, ive got one of ebay for $9 with free postage, i live in a small town and 25 min from the next town that may or may not have it. is this normal? after getting the tool in the mail today i've took the old timing belt and the tensioner off, to replace them, when i took the new tensioner out of the sealed bag and notice the pin that hold the spring is missing of the new tensioner, so i put the original ford one back on for now, should i contact the store i bought it from

Just knock the pin out of the old tensioner and press into the new one. Your lucky to have one to swap with, I got a new tension pulley but no pin or old pulley to steal from. I ended up lathing a pin to push in and stake from the back so it won't rattle out ..

I've just had a look at your van marty, you are highly skilled with your work, looks awesome, i have to do my own work on my van because i can not afford to pay a mechanic or a painter or any skilled labour, being on a pension with my disability ( cerebral palsy ) always try my best but in reality my best isn't always that good, just to keep it on the road, alot of people say to me why dont i get a newer car, but the newer cars always needs to be service by mechanics, i had a VY a few years ago, and i could not afford the $900 service all the time, and i find the little vans are genuinely easy to work on and keep going about 5 years ago ive bought some genuine sundowner buble windows of a person on here and ive still havent got then installed yet ( scared of getting a panel beater doing it and damaging my dead strait panel, with all the past experiences with panel beaters over the past 20 years, get rust cut out of cars and come back with nothing fits as panels are welded in out of line or rusts back in a year or so, this is on my past cars, in the past 20 years HQ statesman, HQ SS (which i swapped a escort van for), last escort van
