How are other Clewett users bypassing the belt sensor? I have the “!” And belt light lit. Is there a method to jumper it?
Yes, create a simple jumper that plugs into the existing belt sensor plug. You can make a tidy one by opening the belt sensor housing and removing the electrical plug. Make a jumper out of this and then simply plug it into the harness.
My hands are too big for that.
With everything pulled from below, the typically-wet chain housing covers can be removed and new gaskets installed.

Another 993 moved to the non-OEM V-belt dark side. Just installed the Clewett system...for no reason other than being bored out of my mind during the lockdown. Took care of the wet chain housing covers, installed new motor mounts and replaced the power steering belt. Now what? This lockdown better end soon before I take on an even crazier project!
This is a major job correct? You literally have to drop the engine or remove a lot of the back.
Actually not as involved as changing timing chain cover gaskets. Need to remove mufflers, cats, engine carrier and rear tin. Andreas has a nice "how to".

I always approve of upgrades that are functionally better than stock and this appears to be one for the 993. It's always a plus when Andreas posts his pics.
