If you can't get movement with a lever bar it won't be moving under driving conditions lol, you have some very strange ideas about car maintenance.
Hey poodle, I just had 2 gates kits fitted on my 307 due to water pump failure on the first kit so would rather have an new old stock Oem pump than a pattern part but yes on the belt obvs a new belt would have to be fitted,
I was a little bit inebriated with Stella last night so give me a break mate!
How are your arb bushes, Piggy?

Are you serious!?!
I was serious.....ly drunk and yes I know the belt would be crap but the pump would be good and not cost me another hundred to have fixed like the gates kit just did on my 307 this month!
