16v Water flange removal _ Help Needed...
« on: 26 May 2013, 20:49 »
The water flange to the front of the engine has sprung a leak. i have a replacement but i'm having trouble removing the allen key bolts.

Can anyone tell me what size the allen key needs to be to remove? Or is there a tool i can get to get the x3 bolts undone?


Any advise would be appreciated.

Thx

Try and get an allen key socket so you can then use a ratchet on it, should do the trick.
