How visible are the timing marks as it looks pretty tight down that side. Thanks

One in the cam pully very easy
Fuel pump doesn't require timing
And the crank/flywheel locking pin is down to the right of starter motor in block

Cam is fine as its right at the top and crank you go in through the arch, remove the front piece of the arch liner and its right infront of you.

But you lock the two while fitting belt as I so it doesnt move whilst fitting belt/tensioners

Excellent thanks ill have a look tomorrow.

Im only after checking it. Im running out of things as to why it wont start. Thanks

A little tip is to use the handle of a radiator roller, once bent to the right shape you can slide it behind the starter and locate it into the flywheel.
Much easier than trying to get your hand down there.
Just remember to disconnect the battery so you don't short out the starter motor.

This also works on the XUD7/9/11 engines, not sure about the petrol ones though (never had one).

And don't forget to remove it before starting, I know of someone who didn't and it's bent and can't be removed lol!!! It's still jammed in there today lol!!!

Pull the solenoid wire off the starter, that way if you forget brain goes oh yeah starter and when you go over there hopefully you remember the pin aswell. Im one of those idiots that snapped an allen key in there lol.
