cam belt change

Post by eelblady » Mon Mar 26, 2018 11:21 am

Just thought I'd report back that the cam belt 'how to' for the 2.5 diesel in the members area was absolutely spot on. 2 of us took about 2.5 hours to do it. Hardest bit was the bottom bolt on the cover - I found it easiest it to get at from below

Lost count of the number of sharp edges around the Bongo engine bay, though!

Just done my v6, kept me busy. 😂
We love our rusty Bongo "Billy", despite his many faults!
