variator

Post by -aL- »

How hard will it be to take the restrictor plate off of the back of my variator? My dad reckons that im apt to fudge something up in the process. Is he completly wrong?

lol....Try an impact wrench, or as some have suggested, hold the pulley in place with an oil filter wrench as you loosen the bolt on the pulley.

maybe you should take it to a shop to have it done if you dont even know which way to turn the nut to loosen it. wouldnt want to break something. leave it to the pros.
