They are sold in pairs (the two halves are different), each bag should have two gaskets in them

OK I have the gaskets & O rings  :y
The guy seemed to know what he was doing, I gave him the part no's & he asked what car & engine & then if I was doing both sides, I said yes & off he went & came back with two gasket packs & 16 O rings.
Double check you have got 4 gaskets - I seem to recall they are sold individually, and 4 required, though an EPC error implies only 2 required...
Yep four gaskets, I opened the packs just to make sure....

He also said that they're not available separately for the really early models any more & that you have to get new covers?

OK, I haven't heard any more, so just checking that everyone has got all the bits they need.

The only stuff I have got is a cambelt kit, Aux belt, and antifreeze for MaxV6 (no waterpump yet Max - have you made other arrangements, or shall I try Banbury)

I have 2 or 3 bottles of antifreeze in garage, plenty of oil, some spin on oil filters etc, and 2 or 3 cans of carb cleaner.

Hopefully, everyone else has arranged their parts?  If not, let me know, I may be able to get to a dealers tomorrow.

Sorry if I'm being a bit thick, do I need antifreeze for a cambelt change?  :-[

Weather forecast has changed slightly, looking like the earlier the better, although still not too bad...

Yes if doing the water pump at the same time... which is highly recommended as it will never be so easy to get it out again...

I would recommend a waterpump every other cambelt, so its up to you if you want to change the waterpump. If you do, its around £25 + VAT for waterpump and around £8 + VAT for 'Red' antifreeze at TC prices...
