It amazes me nowadays that no one can think for themselves and blindly does was the "computer says because the computer is always correct. Reminds me of the Little Britain Joke, the computer says.

When AI wants to take over the human race all it has to do is tell everyone to jump off a cliff and 75% of the population probably would.

I've decided to change the timing belt while I'm at it but the crank pulley nut won't shift even with my 450nm torque gun. Oh well, ain't cars fun.
You don't normally need to remove the crank pulley to do the timing belt,if you remove the small plastic bottom guard ,it is usually possible to twist the timing belt slightly & feed it through the gap .
