Dewey,
Revolution Racegear sell spare keys for their battery switch, not sure if the same as the Supercrap Auto ones, might be worth a check.

Hey,

Just wondering if somebody can give me a run down on how the pulley comes off so I can remove the timing cover. The shop manual is typically vague...

I've had a go at putting a screw driver in the flywhell ring teeth so that the the crank doesn't turn when I try to undo the bfo bolt that holds the pulley on... no luck as yet

tips would be great :-)

I put an old bearing half shell into the ring gear teeth in the starter hole- the shape of the housing holds it in there. Safe to 200 Lb/ft or more torque- better than a screwdriver or jemmy bar... :wink:
<edited> typo..

yeah something other than a screw driver would be more useful.

I was mainly concerned that I might be doing it completely wrong

I have made my own puller using a flywheel.

I got a flywheel with a removeable centre welded a big ass nut inside for a big ass bolt. Then drilled the three existing holes out to take the bolts to screw into the flywheel.

I leave the crankbolt in to "catch" the flywheel when it breaks free.

20 mins work. Looks legit and works extremely well.
