cipx2 Posted October 10, 2007 Share Posted October 10, 2007 I would like to have the timing pin LRT-12-044 made. This is for a 300tdi non EDC engine mated with a manual gearbox (on the disco in my signature). But I need some dimensions and I was thinking maybe someone can help. I don't have the wading plugs to measure them (I'll use the opportunity to have those made too). All I need are the dimensions in red: 1). D=? (is it M14?) 2). X=? 3). (this one is not really necessary) when Y=0, Z=? Can anyone help, please? Thank you in advance. Here's another picture, maybe it can be of some use for others: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Turbocharger Posted October 13, 2007 Share Posted October 13, 2007 Someone on here said that the reversing light switch will unscrew from an LT77/R380 and perform this function? I did mine by eye, making sure the mark was central in the bellhousing aperture. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cipx2 Posted October 13, 2007 Author Share Posted October 13, 2007 The reverse lamp switch from LT77 definitely doesn't work because it has a M10 thread and it looks like this: The one on R380 I don't know, maybe. It looks like this: I would like to use the timing pin more as a locking tool (I'll have it made a bit different) so the reverse switch won't help me much. Thanks for the tip.

DaveSIIA Posted October 15, 2007 Share Posted October 15, 2007 I use the R380 reverse light switch for timing only. Probably not strong enough for heavyweight locking. Big advantage is that it springs easily into location when at the correct timing, and no slop when engaged. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
