Timing Belt?

[Jonny81191]

I've changed a HDi cambelt and a HDi engine...  I'd MUCH rather swap the whole engine!  Should be able to pick up an engine cheap or free, I've never been able to sell them, just end up breaking them for the rods to go in XUDs (which apparently no longer chuck rods lol).

That's because you're failing. 8v HDi cambelts really aren't difficult, also did you factor in the added cost of replacing parts and fluids etc..? Plus the fact that you don't get service history or proof of mileage with second hand engines, so you'll potentially have more issues down the line when you invariably buy a lemon.
