You can mate. But I'll be inspecting it myself anyway. I suspect a dodgy idler or tensioner as opposed to a duff belt.

Thought you were sorted for a 'tester' timing kit, James? I've got an old, but quiet one kicking around  :)

I still reckon your problem is the belt, James. Keep your pulleys, just change the belt for an old known silent one. Belts don't fail, pulley bearings do.

How would a belt cause a knocking noise?
