Hi All
After 14 years of owning a 1995 diesel AFT,late last year I purchased a lovely 2001 white V6.
Sadly the front camshaft oil seal was leaking and killed the alternator and also the cambelt is rather oily too
So.... could I have advice please on any do's and dont's regarding fitting the Cambelt kit and waterpump.
I've read that the two cam pulleys must not be mixed up as they look the same but are about one tooth different. Also be very careful tightening the cam caps to exact torque settings as snapping bolts means a new cylinder head as no parts are available
All advice welcome
Thanks guys
