Greetings Dabs,

Thanks for that but you are oblviously a young whippersnapper,cos you
are talking in chinese.Me,im old and speak in an ancient language that
uses words like,pounds,inches and miles.

Ill get me dikshunairy out and look up what a killometer is.

What does your odometer read in? km or miles? Faceplate speedo conversions will read in km, electronically chipped ones in miles.

And if yours is in miles, was the previous km reading re-clocked in miles, or do you have a 'mixed economy' ie a total of apples and pears (km + miles)?

The latter makes working out cambelt changes a bit tricky.

Greetings Trev,

Not sure if my speedo is chipped or not,as im not sure what that means.

When i bought the Bongo it had a speedo in kph and kms.It now reads
mph and miles,i think it has hust been swapped for an english one.

Ive no problem with the cambelt,i had it changed last month at 60.000 miles.
