Crank locking tool

[Miked5]

I'm looking at buying the genuine timing kit KAM racing are selling but Renault have discontinued the crank locking tool/setting rod (MOT1054). Does anyone have a good aftermarket alternative I can purchase? Or know the rough dimensions diameter, length etc. I've ended up using a drill bit on other engines!

Or if anyone is kind enough to let me rent their kit I'll pay handsomely

Classic Renault!

Laser do a bit of a crap kit which I've used before. There's no nice way to undo the pulleys with it, but if you're just after the locking pin then it'll be fine: https://www.lasertools.co.uk/Product/3388/Engine-Timing-Tool-Kit-for-Renault

Telling me! Why would they discontinue one piece of the timing kit

When looking last night that laser one seemed the only half decent one I could find, you can buy the crank TDC pin separately for £15 aswell.

When they discontinue the rest, my genuine kit is gonna double in value

I bought BGS8577 and Dayuan YT-1068 on Amazon last month. Less than £55 delivered. I'll use them next week, so no idea if they're quality or not
