cheers nursey.

red,i have done my own belt. but retiming from scratch will be new to me. will give it a go tho. advise from others may help in the mean time.

from memory the cams have more than one set of marks?
is that the case? and how to distinguish.???

is it ok to move the cams via the allan key bolt in the cam sprocket???

and red. obviously crank the engine 2 or 3 times by hand with the crank nut first to make sure nothing bangs   before you think about firing it. if you get that far, obviously

I could perhaps pop over and have a look, but I'm out tomorrow.  Could maybe do sometime on Monday (I'm off work next week).
