Ford Mondeo crankshaft pulley removal:
- remove the auxiliary drivebelt - either remove the drivebelt completely, or just secure it clear of the crankshaft pulley, depending on the work to be carried out;
- if necessary, rotate the crankshaft until the timing marks align;
- the crankshaft must now be locked to prevent its rotation while the pulley bolt is unscrewed; proceed as follows:
- if the engine/transmission is still installed in the vehicle:
- if the vehicle is fitted with manual transmission, select top gear, and have an assistant apply the brakes hard;
- if the vehicle is fitted with automatic transmission, unbolt the small metal cover plate from the sump, and use a large screwdriver or similar to lock the driveplate ring gear teeth while an assistant slackens the pulley bolt;
- take care not to damage the teeth or the surrounding castings when using this method;
- if the engine/transmission has been removed but not yet separated:
- if the vehicle is fitted with manual transmission, remove the starter motor and lock the flywheel using the method outlined in (2) above;
- if the vehicle is fitted with automatic transmission, see (2) above;
- If the engine/transmission has been removed and separated;
- unscrew the pulley bolt and remove the pulley.
Ford Mondeo crankshaft pulley refitting:
- refitting is the reverse of the removal procedure; ensure that the pulley's keyway is aligned with the crankshaft's locating key, and tighten the pulley bolt to the specified torque wrench setting.
