Doing A CamBelt Myself (Any Advice).

[sideways danny]

i find the hardest bit is putting the aux belt back on, what a tw@t the tensioner is, i made my own tool for this. but not willing to release design

I did the same. I may be up for making a couple if there's any demand

snap on do a tool for it that actually fits/works!

just finished doing the belts myself the guide was great i
managed without the aux tensioner tool just wind the hose clamp
tight and get the bolt in before the alternator bolt easier said than done
tho

How long did it take you all in? have you done stuff like this before.

Just wondering as I may need to remove my cylinder head soon and want to give it a go myself, with the correct timing tools etc of course!

about 10 hours. done cams and headgaskets before but not on clios.

just make sure you have a decent manual or guide and follow it well.
