Camshaft adjuster and cams
« on: April 28, 2014, 03:28:22 pm »
Right I decided to fit camshaft adjuster chain Ect to my car striped down and realised that I didn't have the locking tool which I then borrowed from a mate. I then went to remover and I could undo the camshaft adjuster bolt tryed everything and ended up rounding it off ! I also found that my cambelt guide was worn so I brought new cambelt kit! Still tryed to get the adjuster bolt off and I couldn't !! So I ended up having to put back together !
So my question is does Anyone know how I can remove the bolt or could anyone in the Gloucester area do the job for me???

Not a happy bunny lol!

I'm guessing I'm going to need a new camshaft ?  :scared:
