Kevin, was the cambelt setup all checked?


No. We didn't check the cam belt.

I am still suprised you guys never checked this, how come? :-?
no need to touch it as far as the install goes, we did discuss taking the cover off for timing and forign body in the belt, but was very late in the day...

We spent most of our time backtracking changes we had made during the install. Cam belt was not touched and therefore failure would have to have been a huge coincidence.

Everything we have changed is now covered, I believe, so it's time to start considering such coincidences.

indeed it would be, but the noise was not coming from that area, seemed to centre on pot 1 or 3 if anything? But noises can be hard to pin point, as we know...

I have heard something similar once when I left a cam pulley un-tightened and started it up.

pretty soon worked out what it was, though !

Now I remember the lad ........

That's it - he and dad came over to our field to borrow my trolley jack for TB at Newent 2009.
Zok senior carried the handle, and poor 'junior' ended up lugging the rest - Mrs Sethsmate was in stitches laughing!
 :D :D ;D ;D
She did feel sorry for the lad though .......
