No, unless you like skinned knuckles. It has to be something flat so it will
not slip off. Those bolts should not be tight but may be corroded. It helps
to leave the serpentine belt in place to help hold the pulley.

Someone was kind enough to send me the part numbers and quantities needed so
I can order the fuel line clips - now that I'm ready to buy them I cannot
find the email with the info. after searching tru a *lot* of emails!
If you don't mind, could you send the info again? ;-)

Re: ebay item 330028300261
Looks suspiciously like the lower part of the servo containing the plumbing
and coolant flow control valve...? If that part needs replacing then I'd
suspect the gearset is past it also.

Do any of you have a front passenger seat cover that you'd be willing to

against.

Grounding? See if you have +12v to the lamps, if so, you don't have ground.

Those seats look like they should be in a bass boat.
Where do you live?
I'd have to tear the seat out and apart and get a shipping weight.
