A Question? 700 1986

posted by  someone claiming to be James on  Thu Dec 30 03:50 CST 2004 [RELATED]

Hello,
I posted earlier about engine noise. I have had a quick look at the timing belt and cogs and the tensioner nut + roller (the nut with rubber cover over on timing cover) The nut for the tensioner and roller is right over to the right more and not centred to the nut that holds it on. Is this normal? The tensioner as far as I know hasn't been replaced and the car has done 150,000 miles. All cogs are firmly on and not lose. I WD40 the tensioner nut only not getting any oil on the belt and also oiled the water pump/fan belt pully nuts the same. It seems to be much quieter. James.

Hello,
I have now got a new username and used a password because of the imposter posting above, which wasn't me. I had the timing belt and front seals replaced over a year ago by a garage.
Does it sound as if the tensioner is the problem from the description above?

Many thanks James.

In the middle of doing the replacement myself. Do you know how they got the bootom seal out? I broke a screwdriver already and it has not moved at all. Where is the mark to line up the white lines?

Thanks in advance James.
