Alternator pulley arrived today. Removed old one and replaced with new plus belt, took about half an hour. Super quiet at idle now and no issues that i had previously.

Spent a fair amount of time this evening changing out fuel injectors on my 1.6. Managed to lose a clip somewhere in the engine room, hopefully in the light tomorrow, it will be easier to find. My steel wire hack does not seem to keep it leak free 8) :roll:

Took a multi tool/oscillator to the bulk head. Trimmed the bottom to allow ply to butt up to the bar.
Gave it a pressure wash while it was out. Came up nice. Think I am going to carpet it when I do the ply panels

Continued the sound deadening and insulation.

@gjseb Na no where near that. It was cheaper than the aftermarket sets you see on eBay. I don’t want to post it up what I paid as I wouldn’t want you to quote me on it and as I’ve had a set before and done some of the work myself it wouldnt be the same price.
