For helping a useless student sort cambelt on FatherT's car.
Always nervous about doing a cambelt, was doing well until, got wedge in without issues, stripped everything down.
Of course it was in TDC when locked? ::) :-[ :-[
Anyway, got it all sorted & thats FatherT's 2.2 sorted for another 4 years :)

You're welcome.
Bled the coolant through now?
TheBoy's top tip of the day, have it at TDC when you take the belt off, takes some of the guesswork out ;)

dropped a fraction, but stuck it in the garage, will let it cool and top up coolant tomorrow :)

Stops it sounding like a tumble dryer full of bricks when you try to start it again, too. ::)

I didn't realise you took the belt off of the Rusty Silver Bullet when you converted it :-X ::) :D

Thought we got all the gravel out of that...? :-\

Bizarrely enough, even after Marks DTM Calib fixed the lifters and EGR pipe, remember it was still a bit noisey, esp after an "energetic workout"? I never did get around to checking oil pressure ::). But it seems a few weeks of Italian Tune Up solved it, that I forgot all about that issue until tunnie's 3.2 started making similar noises ::)
