can i just undo bolt turn put drill in hole and manually turn engine until i feel the drill bit go in further....

Les Henson:
I don't know why they say you have to set it at TDC because you don't have to.

Are you sure that you don't mean the injector pump?

KingWolf:
It is advisable to have the engine in TDC as it's a right pain the refit the vacuum pump if not - ask me how I know...!!!

I just flicked the engine on the starter a few times until the new pump fitted close enough to do the bolts up.

Will try that approach, just hope nothing starts pinging out of the engine, Knowing my luck..... :lol:
