cam belt and bosch fitting help

[puglove]

Any one is the south west able to do it for a price?

Mainly looking for some one to do the cambelt and give me a hand fitting and setting up the bosch, evety time i take a pump off its a night mare, there must be an easier way that im missing? and im not confident doing a belt change having only ever done it on a discover, not quite the same im guessing :/

Cheers

Cut the old belt off. Move everything around a half a turn to make sure the timing is absolute perfect then just slide the new one on. Make sure it's very tight (don't want it falling of). Then crack her up and watch her purr like a car

I wouldnt advise that purely because you miss a few critical steps required when putting the belt back on...

I may have you mixed up with someone else but aren't you fitting a SC to your GTi6?

Surely you can muster the courage to do a cam belt and pump job!

But you'll kill a 5k SC kit? Wheres the logic?

Because i got a rediculusly detailed fitment guide, the guy who made the kit on the end of the phone, and some one to check it. So not the slightest issue. And i can save loads of money.

With somthing like this would rather check some one a few quid just to run me through it.

As long as you lock off the timing using the old 6mm allen key behind the started through the flywheel and then use the intercooler bolts to lock off the cam and the fuel pump before you remove the old belt then it is pretty much impossible to get wrong as long as you keep the belt under tension starting from the cam pulley and work your way down to the crank over the front of the engine it'll be fine.

Seriously just drash on with it..........you can't make any more of an arse of it than other people on here have did fitting a pump
