4 cylinder cambelt DVD
« on: 18 February 2009, 19:17:11 »

Bought it a year ago but just watched it in preparation to doing the belt on mine.
Is it only my copy that has barely audible voice during the complete job.
 Also at the end the engine is turned over by hand to check timing marks after one revolution ,  the right hand cam seems to have moved from the timing mark ,the tensioner is released and then the DVD finishes abruptly.
I presume the all the slack wasn't removed from the belt prior to initial tensioning but cant be sure due to the final editing ( or not ,as the case may be ).
Is it only this copy or are they all like that ?

I am sure there was a second DVD with not much commentary, but was in the OOf shop.

I got mine late last year and was one of the first.


JUST CHECKED, STILL IN THE SHOP :y

There is only 1 version of the 4cyl one.  Its quite dark, and very quite commentry.

I'm secretly hoping that Mr DTM and Mr Hood will produce a better one for 4 pot owners...

Mines was the same, but managed to do the change without any problems. DVD gives you a step in the right direction if you watch it a couple of times. Definantly worth the £3.
