Ive got new one on and just need to adjust the coolant pump to get the correct tension. Ive undo the 3 allen bolts but it wont move is it likely to be seized? Any help would be great!
If any one could just tell me step by step (in easy terms!:lol
Thank u.

I think that is the water pump bolts.
You don't need to undo anything to get the belt on. The tensioner has two plates with V marks, line the V marks up. You can do this with your fingers or pliers. The belt will slide on, and will Self-Tension.
Good luck

dont tension it with the water pump even though the book says it you will split the o ring and it will leak, just slip new belt on and it will be same tension as before.
p.s you need two special spanners to move water pump, no need to undo bolts
