I just realized today that with this set up alternator/A/C pump belt is too long, I end up measuring with old belt and came up with 5PK1210 and original is 5PK1235.

I found Bando 5PK1210 on Ebay and I end up purchasing two of them just in case to have one extra spare, hopefully it’s here by Wednesday.

Probably should add that it was running today for 30 minutes and all looked good, no leaks of any kined ????

This GTI6 oil pan is little lower but nothing I can’t deal with ????

These photos have been taken by professional last Saturday for 100 years of Citroën celebration.

I finally received my Euro bumpers, side skirts, door moldings, new fog lamps and other bits. Mr Paul Gritton is awesome person to deal with and he made wooden crate for me and bubble wrapped it all.

Everything is washed and ready for paint, I also took door chrome strips to powder coating (semi gloss black) and ordered universal front lip.





I should also add minor changes to fuel system, new 6 microns larger ethanol compatible fuel filter and lower profile fitting for better clearance. My old fuel filter was mini billet 40 micron filter and it was just not good enough, it would not trap enough debris and they would end up on top of injectors where there would not be enough of fuel passage which would cause misfire and running lean conditions. On top of that might as well do oil change with factory filter.

 I’m still looking for functional fuel level sender.
