Cambelt kit. Where do you buy them?
« on: 02 August 2013, 21:20:30 »
Hi guys,

Sorry to be a pain as I know this is a question I should know the answer to but a little while ago someone posted up a website where you can put your reg number in and pick a kit.

Mine's due end of August and having a get together with the N.O.O.F branch at symes's and need to get my kit.

could someone post a link? :)

cheers

ps, im not going to replace water pump.... so am I right in thinking that I need belt, tensioner, backing plate and two idlers and that's it? :)

Most well known kits are identical to genuine GM and much cheaper.

Look for SKF, Gates or Contitech kits and try all the usual suspects for the best price. :y

Living in Northamptonshire and being a member of OOF makes you an automatic member of NOOF. I'll see if we've got any car stickers left  ;D ;D ;D

ok, quick question....

this is one I've found.....

http://www.buypartsby.co.uk/details/VAUXHALL/OMEGA/2.5/2000/__/54/CT990K1/timing-belt-kit/

completely confused by the description.... 1.) why does it list timing bekt x 1 3 times  :-\ amd 2.) it only mentions 1 idler (guide pulley). thought there should be 2  :-\
