d-a-n Posted June 20, 2011 Share Posted June 20, 2011 Recently bought an R plate sportif which is coming up to 54k. It didn't come with any service history so I don't know if the cambelt has ever been changed. The car has power steering. What is required to change the cam belt and do I need to go for the whole timing belt kit or just the belt itself? Does it take very long and are there any forum members who might lend a hand?

Rob Scott Posted June 20, 2011 Share Posted June 20, 2011 i allways go for a full kit, as I've had tensioners fail before, so i allways replace the whole lot.cam belt on a starlet aint too bad, as you only have one cam wheel, Quote Link to post Share on other sites
