i have a maddness puller but it will not fit between the s/c and car frame (2005 mcs)

 

looking around nam site maybe i should have got a alta puller

 

I have an alta puller for sale!

 

Thats because you need to lift the supercharger side of the motor.

 

i am sorry not sure what you mean lift the s/c side

 

any pixs, toldly lost

 

Check the how to link that Bram posted. I believe you need to disconnect a motor mount and jack up the motor. Be careful, when the Mini dealer did mine the motor slipped off the jack. It took them hours to get the deformed pulley off.

 

Place the floor jack under the center of the engine with a block of wood to distribute the weight of the engine and also to protect the oil pan. Raise the engine until the pulley is more accessible.

Please read this step by step instructions. Fig #9 shows the engine being lifted high enough to gain easy access to the pulley.
