...And after reading the v6 cambelt procedure over and over again, I understand that the position of the rollers is essential for degreeing in / adjusting the cam timing after two turns of the crank.

ill definitely remember to re-tension the belt after adjusting the idlers this time  :-[ :-[ :-[ :-[ :-[ :-[

although I think ill do it at the garage with a watchful eye over me  ;D I did ask him and he's done a few so all good

Mine is a BluePoint (Snap-On) kit I purchased for when I did the HG's a couple of weeks ago, it even came with the spanned for the tensioner.... which was handy...

I borrowed the kit off the good AndyB last year, is easy enough to use and do TBH...

Just double check everything is tight after rotating the engine twice....

Thanks mini . . . Still scary tho  :'(

I do remember that when I purchased the last kit it came with the wrong backing plate. Can someone remind me what two letter code I will need on 2.5 v6. Think one says EB
