Cam chain

[Rhop1992]

If I buy myself a new cam chain and tensionerl is there anybody on here that will be able to do fit it for me this weekend for a bit of cash?

Location might help?

It's a 5 hour job for someone competent with the spanners, so a 'bit of cash' would need to reflect that.

Sorry I'm in the Salisbury Wiltshire area and yeah the cash would be discussed before hand to make sure they're happy

5 hours? I am hoping to do mine in 25mins...

Took 25mins to make a brew, stare at the engine for a bit, then take the engine cover off

Is the cam chain a common problem with these cars?
How much is the everage cost to replace

Thanks

I think he might mean the three rings that are on the cam cover shaft bit that inserts into the adjuster. I think if the cover doesnt come off square they can break

I meant to check, they arent meant to be whole rings are they? Supposed to have a little break in them right? @doylebros
