Hi all I need to do a cambelt change on my van but the local garage want too much £230 just for labour. I have done one before on a old xr2 cvh engine but that was many years ago.
I have watched this video and it looks fairly straight forward? http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RfTnbjIJnCs
Only thing that worrys me about doing it is -
1 The crankshaft bolt if I can't manage to free it off.
2 How tight to tension the belt up (As I believe its not self ajusting and you have to use some kind of tension meter tool???)
Besides that it doesn't look too difficult?
Any help much appreciated or if anyone close to Walsall west midlands that would like to help or do it cheap lol.
