Camshaft locking & ailignment tools?
« on: 21 October 2010, 20:59:22 »

My V6 cambelt replacement DVD arrived this morning, so I had a little watch over lunch.

Just one quick question. Does anyone know where I can get the camshaft alignment tools and camshaft locking tools from, and how much they are likely to cost please?

With this being my first ever cambelt change, I could do with all the tools possible to help ensure the job doesn't end with a bang.


Thanks fellas.

I bought a Sealey VSE130 kit from Amazon for about £80. I would post a link but the website says it is currently down for a few minutes for maintenance :-/

There was a bad batch of Lasers knocking around, where the crank lock was wrong.

I got my SP one from egay, around £50, but that was 5 or 6 years ago.
