Thanks Niklas. I had contemplated trying this but i was doing it on my own, and had no way of holding the cam sprocket in place whilst fiddling with the belt. Might have been worth a go though. Probably would have managed it quicker than the way i had done it.....Jim

You can get up so that your chest is on the fender, grab the hanndle of the wrench with both hands and easily put the torque on the bolt. Even 135 lb me can do it. Which is intersting, becuase it takes a bit more force to pull 218 ft*lb on the bolt than I weigh.
not if your wrench handle is two feet long.........do the math.......
