Re: stilo, timing tools haha i wouldnt even dream of doing it with the timing kit.

But thats just me :D

Re: stilo, timing tools hi mate, i have the timing kit if your in the basildon area (essex) then no problems.
i wont rent it, but will loan it out happily but will ask for the cost of the kit to be covered before hand obviously. the kit cost me £150 if you leave me the cash then i will return it when you return the kit.
I dont beileve in making a profit for something i needed.
ps it would be very difficult to do the job without the kit, actually it would be very easy to write of your engine, but with the kit and a bit of know how then the job is pretty easy.
with my kit ive also put a flywheel lock (although its not quiet right but does the job) and a deep socket (3/8 drive) to remove the fixed bearing.
let me know and i will dig it out.
the dots of paint wont work, i tried this as a back up and ended up scratching my head, the belt never lands on the same tooth even after 100s of revolutions, with mine i just cranked it over about 20 x then put the locking kit on, when it lined up ok i knew the job was done. rip 1.6 active..... :(
