V6 Timing Kit (Laser) on ebay for £17 DELIVERED !

Spotted this on ebay... at £17 to your door there's no excuse for not getting that timing belt changed!  (i'm afraid)  ;)

Laser kit is not the best quality, and there was a batch of them which didn't fit at all a couple of years back but will do the job, IMHO. For that price you can't really argue.  :y

I'd try one out for £17 if I didn't have the SP one in the garage  :)

Should be bang on to be honest. The issue with a batch of the Lasers was the crank lock didn't lock ;D

Agreed, although the locking keys are a little floppy. The main factors determining accuracy are the crank lock and the binocular shaped timing jig. Both appear reasonable on my Laser kit, although, with the crank lock, it obviously improves accuracy if it fits the water pump. ;D

These do ALL gm v6's right? mines up in 10k odd, and another member wants his doing. Both 3.2.

Shame there's  no  32mill cranked spanner type thing. They dont need to be too meaty, but for that money...

hi
We are very very sorry but the LASER TOOL that you had bought yesterday was actually a listing error on our part we are very sorry about this as you probably noticed it was extremely cheap in fact a lot less than what we are paying for so we are unable to proceed with the transaction we have amended the cost of the item but in the mean time we will issue you a full refund and hope there are no hard feelings,
Regards
