URGENT crank shaft pulley launceston
Hey tassie crew
I'm currently in Launceston and my crank shaft pulley has shat itself. It's rounded out the locating notch and is unbalanced, it's spat the altenator/ps belt off once already and I don't want to drive the car much further. As I'm supposed to be road tripping with mates while we're down from Vic this is a sh*t thing to happen.
Can anyone suggest where I could look (wreckers? auto suppliers?) for a replacement? I don't want to spend a fortune from Subaru and they would probably have to order it from sydney anyway.
Being Sunday everything is closed - where should I call tomorrow? Also looking for a mechanic to do the work as I don't have the necessary tools with me.
Car is a '97 outback, 2.5L manual.
Any help is massively appreciated!
Cheers,
Owen.

Hey Guys,
I have a 1988 L series wagon with a rebuilt EA82 engine, head has cracked so she is running hot now, when it was rebuilt was top and bottom end so the short motor is good.
Has two good tires, body is a bit rough. Free to a good home!! A six pack would be appreciated though
Located in Deviot.
Give me an email or call phone call on 0427 035 175 if your keen.
I am at sea between the 24th and 30th of March so just leave a message!
Cheers

I reckon I'll take it. Sounds perfect to leave down at the shack to take the boat down to the beach. I'll talk to you again when you get back.

If so by who? & why?
I will be sorry to see it go....
Why, we ask that too but the world needs toilet paper and phone books.
we sell them old growth forest for a few bucks a tonne to make it.
Sorry, we are very sorry, angry and sad if they build the proposed pulp mill and really ruin it.

mind you, a couple a years ago a friend and i drunkenly took matters into our own hands and put a homemade 'firecracker' on the CEO's door step and painted a dick on his fence.. diddn't go down too well but shortly after he quit..
