When you set it once, you check it then and reallign if needed. I am in the middle of the whole cambelt stuff (got stuck at other parts, see my thread if interested) and from my point of view the cambelt setting itself is not a problem if you have the tools (strong ones, that dont bend when...

got new stud, finally Locite 518 arrived today, so i put back the cam cover, locked the cams and crank again (was in mid position to be sure). Played with accesorie belt pulley on crank i found out its worn out. I can turn the outside while the center is not moving. By hand. Not easily but its...

Try disconnecting the injector. Running on 3 cylinders is not nice but if it does not cut out than it supports your theory. Had an idea of fuel pressure regulator, Did you test another one? Just my ideas ;)

At my first days here, I thought 1*2 = 1.2. But after some topics I had to ask the greymatter at my top and there was enlighment.

Got out the stud finally after welding A piece of metal to it. New one ordered + seal.

I really hope it will come loose. Another thing is,i have oil on cam cover so needed a new seal anyway. Regarding the tools: Triumf, could not get the genuine ones. Tried 3 dealers here locally, they dont sell it. I know its not genuine tool, but its solid, as it never moved when placed well...

does not look very promising, it will not come loose so easyly:( can i hurt the cam with heat? I plan to weld something on the end when out of engine, but not sure about how easy it is to bend a camshaft as i can not lock it tight enough. Any hints?

Thats good news...I have to dissassemble it tommorow to see how it looks, if I can get it fastened or need to drill it out. Got bored with it today after the timing was finally spot on.

Everything went fine till the exhaust cam 'Bolt ' broke. Did not even reach the required torque. Is this Bolt bolted into the exhaust cam or do I need a new complete cam? Sad moments but better to break now as somewhere on roads

Managed to remove crank cambelt pulley, and also the exhaust pulley with a breaker bar and a big sound effect :) I am happy that I can tension the belt the proper way

I tried the exhaust pulley first, when belt was on and pulley was locked, as I read that its the hardest one. Cant raise the engine so high that I could fit a impact gun, so I try loosen the gearbox engine mount to gain more space. The crank pulley than should be no problem to get off. No...

so, work in progress at my cambelt change. Hell its time consuming, take apart all the stuff to get to the belts;) Have a few issues. 1st, my timing was out. Not much, but horseshoe did not fit in when crank was locked. Fixed with little adjusting. Cams and crank locked. 2nd, exhaust pulley...

Mines the same;)

1812lsd, thanks for the link, you have a nice collection of manuals:) Link works fine.

Here is the video of tensioner, but after having a though on it...i think its ok. http://youtu.be/pXYiW8PERiY

For information: cam seals kit (7701471629) includes: - dephaser blanking piece with seal (8200539622) - dephaser bolt with hole in it (8200545704) - exhaust pulley nut (8200793248) - exhaust cam seal - intake cam seal

Very nice and clean. Thumb up. Reminds me of cleaning mine could be usefull :)

I know what you mean with the tab , its in the manual. Even if I grab the tab, the middle part where you insert the allen key and set tension rotates free. I try to make a video.

i am checking the kits and have a question about the cambelt tensioner. I have a strange feeling smth is not right. On mine i can freely rotate the yellow part, while the blue+green stays still. I think blue+yellow should stay together, othervise the whole tensioner will only move slightly...

great, so i wont order it now. Anyway, i can replace it anytime later on if needed. Looks like i have everything to have a nice saturday in the garage:)

Worked for me ok, this link: http://www.phil-barker.com/temp/clio_sport_technical_manuals.zip

hopefully last question:) I downloaded Dialogys, but i cant see the dephaser blank seal. They say in the manual that Refit the phase shifter blanking piece with a new seal? Can somebody please confirm if it only comes with a new blanking piece (the one with 14mm opening) or i can get it...

Found it finally http://www.cliosport.net/forum/showthread.php?584307-CLIO-172-Full-Workshop-Manual-Required&highlight=clio+172+manual :)

Thanks MG cup. When i found anything else, no problem to leave the car sit in the garage and source whats needed. Do you have a link to english service manual? I have some pdfs in local, but this site is more usefull than that, LoL :)

Thanks for all input so far. Yes, new oil and filters is automatic. Ordered the bolts and seals today. Waterpump was done 2 yrs back, and i drove it only around 10000km. I would not touch it but the dephaser ticking...

I did not Pass MOT when wrong. And you could smell the ritch mixture in closed areas. No fault codes, only ECU gets wrong/late data.

Thanks, number 2 and 16 i have in the Cambelt Kit. I was thinking at no.8 or 5. I have already a bolt for the dephaser.

Good morning, I am planning to do cambelt on my 172 soon. Have the tools, skills, garage, crane and patience:) I have read a lot of threads about it on here. I got: - cambelt kit - auxbelt kit - dephaser pulley (+deph. bolt) I had the cambelt done 2 yrs back, but my dephaser is rattling like...

Oh, i have no experience in the new mk4 model, The same engine runs in megane with 130 ps so should be no problem. Btw. do you feel it low on power? I am fiddling with the idea of a mk4 GT as a dayli driver

Yes you are right, the front is there for fuel mixture. Not sure why is the post-cat lambda there, maybe to check if CAT does its job.
