Hey Guys

I've had a search round and i cant find a how to for a cambelt change on a 180, I'm sure there used to be one...anyway, could any one give me any pointers on how to do it or even just do a "How To" for it?

Cheers
Rich

Unfortunately the Haynes manual doesn't cover the 180.

Cambelt change is a real a**e on a 138, It will be even worse on a 180. If you have never done it before, I wouldn't say a 180 is a good starting point.

I think you need to undo an engine mount to move the engine over!

I thought that might be the case, do you know if the cam cover is in 2 bits or how many screws are in it?
