Tools..

Wed Mar 26, 2008 9:27 pm

Anyone know a source of BMW related tools?

Mainly after a tool for turning the front pulley on an S50. Also a shim bucket compressor to remove shims.. The shim tool appears to be fairly generic, just dependant on the dia of the cams i guess..

Or has anyone got a method of turning an S50 lump over without the tool? Cant use anything that will jerk it ie in gear and pushing the car

dony know if this will help you at all, but I know that Draper do some specialist tools for certain makes of cars.

Can you put a breaker bar on the end of the crank pulley bolt?

Dan, Are you going to shim this up yourself then? I can have a word with my BMW mechanic mate and see what he would charge to do it.
