Yup, I'll chuck the kit in car, not sure when I can get up to you (unless you can get down to Bletchley?)

I can get to Bletchley no problem,  just need to know so I make sure I drop the wife at work and keep her car.  If you are in Bletchley tomorrow, I could pop over.  If you are near a Pub all the better [smiley=beer.gif]

OK, PM the address and what is likely to be the best time.  Dont need to 30mm spanner, just the kit.

Cheers

I have a 3m x 3m material type gazebo. Being material, not entirely sure how waterproof it is if it gets really wet...


Also got a gazebo that I can chuck into the back of the motor if required.

Sounds good.  Got a few pointless audio conferences today, so if landline engaged, use mobile number ;)

Merv,

If you can strip down to where you were for cambelt replacement that will save time, also drain radiator and remove water pump again to empty the block, that way we shouldnt have to lie in antifreeze on the day.
Can you provide a power feed for work lights?

Ok will do.  Power is no problem, I will make sure that there are at least 2 extension leads to use.

Will I need to get a new seal for the pump, or is it likely to be OK (new on a couple of weeks ago).  I'm also guessing I just remove the belt, not the tensioners etc, if so these will need new bolts (according to haynes).

Belt and tensioners off....back plate has to be removed to do the heads....seal should be fine.

Issunaz.....Gazebo would be good just in case.

Allenm has my 3m x 3m gazebo (its only cloth, not sure how waterproof if there is big downpour), also has locking kit for cambelt.

Allenm, anything else you need, or if you need a hand with anything, just let me know...

Ok, No problem,  are the bolts on your shopping list, or should I nip out to VX this week and get some replacements?

Hi Guys, been watching this thread for the last couple of days since I joined. It's addictive vieiwing, a bit like a soap  :) I think this site is great, being able to follow something and learn alot. Hi hope this sorts out for you Merv! I know what it's like going to work and leaving you meega on the drive every day :(

Good luck guys, I'm following this closely as in the next couple of weeks I'm going to be changing my cam belt and this is invaluable information - Thanks!!!
