Cambelt change

Post by Damo » Sun Jan 14, 2007 4:28 am

Hi people,
Bongos are great we all know that or we wouldnt be here but can anyone tell me if there is a vehicle out there with a cambelt that is easier or cheaper to replace that my 95 freindee mpv ? After 20 years of 'spanner twirling' i am scratching my head to come up with an answer ?
Please can anyone out there help me sleep at night ! :D

I cant help as such, but reckon there must be a trick to it cos people dont seem to charge that much for changing them, suggesting it is not overly labour intensive. Is it worth treating yourself and just getting it done by someone familiar with the Bongo - expensive bit of DIY if you get it wrong I would imagine.
