I'm putting this down to the timing being out a tooth, does anyone know how to set the inlet cam on these? i had to rotate very slightly to get the cam adjuster back on when i say slight i mean very slight, i didnt think it would be a problem as i had to move it so little. if anyone knows could you let me know how this is done.

Thanks

Buy VCDS


Also Rich owes me 40 miles at 40pence per mile.

I will get vcds at some point, just going to strip it down again and sort it out nothing else for it, i have diagnostis and should get kw reading off that so see what i get , thanks

Ok got a reading of 44/45 kw ticking over if the actual should be 24 i would say its a bit out ! anyone have an idea how to adjust the cam? as obviously once the chain is off there is nothing holding it but the locking tool also i don't see any markings on the cam apart from the dimple on the inlet teeth

thanks

Make sure engine is up to operating temp before measuring.
