Title: It WILL end in tears
Post by: Elite Pete on 24 January 2009, 19:00:39
If you dont change your cambelt at the required intervals. This is what me and Loo Knee found today when we went to pick up a very nice Elite with 66,000 miles on the clock. Its a shame really :(

I'm unsure (as usual)...Did the belt let go & knacker the engine or did you get it home ok & take it off to replace it? :-/

Cant you just swap the engine over.....

Belt had definately gone look at the picture :o
I fitted a new one to get us home... The noise was mental, brakes didn't work properly unless I revved it in neutral.
