Exclamation Help with Alda

I have surched the threads, and nothing on the removal and installation of the Alda. Is the Alda hocked to the push rod in the pump. (82 300D Turbo) Please Help!

I'm pretty sure it is not hocked anywhere - jk.

Anyway, there is a large nut underneath the ALDA (I'm thinking around 27 mm - not exactly sure though. Nut turns clockwise as you are looking down on it to allow you to remove the ALDA.

o.k. thanks, is there anything I need to know before I take the old Alda off, and put the new one on? On a open end wrench do you know what the mm size is for a 1 1/16 in.?

That would be a 27mm . . .

I haven't removed the Alda so I have no experience to share on that . . .

Can you explain why you are removing the ALDA? These devices are very reliable and rarely require replacement.

The screw broke, the threads striped. So I went to the junk yard and pulled what looks like a good one (untouched).
I opened it up, cleaned it up, and resealed the unit. I just got done installing it in the car. It works great. Thanks for the tips.
