    Problem Found! Aux Belt Sort Of Gone Help?

    My guess is as good as everyone elses with regards to the valve damage, Unfortunatly theres no definitive answer. The cams moving is a good sign shows the belts not snapped but it doesnt mean it hasnt jumped a couple of teeth. Have you removed the aux belt and tried to start it?

    Need to know the width of your wheel TBH, ITs alright people saying oh they'l fit as ive had them on my 1*2 etc but your 200 rims may have the biggest tyre on that they will accomodate safely, You could have a wider tyre fitted and the handling go all sloppy due to flex
