That reminds me of the time when i had my Amiga 500+ and a disk that said - 'Outrun disk 2 - VIRUS DO NOT USE!' If ya know what i mean!  ;D

But on a serious note - i do want to part with a fiver for the chance to save £300 notes on a cambelt change!

I have just got the DVD, but looking at it think it might be beyond me???

 1 :I assume the timing thingy come with the cam lock kit??
2 :was there any perticulary tough bits you struggled with??
Dean

1: Yes it does, with the Sykes Pickavant and the Sealey.. Can't speak for the rest...

2: No, I paced myself to check everything twice as I was doing the job, assisted by my 13 year old son....  Truth be told, he could have done it under supervision..

Did manage to break a tube off the Vacuum Box, which is attached to the bottom of the inlet trumpets.. made a temp fix, all running fine though... going to the scrappers to try to source a new one...  Timing is crucial, so turning the engine several times at various points in the timing adjustment makes  a very accurate setting...  I made sure that mine was BANG ON !!    :exclamationDon't guess the torque settings either...  Found one of my back plate bolts, finger tight... VX did it last 43K ago !!!!!!!!!! :exclamation

Go on, Have a go,

DC

I was fortunate enough to get a second hand Sykes Pickavant off e-bay...  one of the lads on here was selling it and he dropped the details in a thread....  Halfords had used to sell S&P stuff, but don't anymore....   I think I read that Wheelchairkid, on here, bought one for £50 or so only last week....  have a look on recent threads..

If we can help in any way, just shout................
