Webby, IIRC, cam 1 should have 2 numbers on it, a 1 and a 2. These should be next to the 2 'groves' - one of which is tippexed.

What I'm hoping is that the tippexed one has a '2' next to it, and the untippexed has a '1' next to it. If so its only a tooth or 2 out :y


Hope that clarifies what Marks DTM and JamesV6 was trying to say :y

Just so we get this absolutely clear as I know I can be retarded...... when I say the crank is at TDC..... that's when the line/notch on the crank is at 6 o'clock, right?

yes

Then we got problems!!! lol

Is it possible that it could be a tensioner failure that's caused this?

I double checked the other sprockets. they are all roughly spot on using the marks on the casing.
