Title: 16v ENGINE FIXED
Post by: beechymonza on 19 November 2011, 12:00
Well after thinkin my engine was fooked, Wouldnt start an when it did sounded like a marble in a tin can,
We found the cause 2day,  :grin:
A few weeks ago on way 2 Blackpool my alternator belt snapped, AA fixed it,
Done about 300 miles since, Then last week the problem occured,
So on route 2 strippin engine down we found a piece of Alternator belt lodged in can belt, :angry:
Cam belt had jumped around 2 teeth  :shocked:
But its all fine now, :cool:

Great news! You covered everything possibly could have gone wrong!
At least you learn't something along the way, hope you give it back to other members who have issues.
It would help me out repeating myself :laugh:
