#1: 206 gti 180 cambelt Author: samfrygti180, Posted: Sun Feb 10, 2013 1:02 pm ---- Fitted new cambelt and water pump on saturday but since then its right down on power and cuts out if you floor it then back off the throttle
any ideas?
#2: Re: 206 gti 180 cambelt Author: Big_Rich180, Posted: Sun Feb 10, 2013 1:03 pm ---- Badly fitted cam belt, id you use all the correct locking tools?
#4: Re: 206 gti 180 cambelt Author: samfrygti180, Posted: Sun Feb 10, 2013 1:09 pm ---- all correct tools used found it very hard to time it up couldnt find it autodata books
my engine code is rfk
but for that in the books it a 4 bolt bottom pulley but mines a 1 bolt floater
the only way we could get it to time up was to a 2.2 406 coupe

I cant elaborate on how to get the timing correct other than take it to Peugeot or a french car specialist.

406 2.2
180
#7: Re: 206 gti 180 cambelt Author: samfrygti180, Posted: Sun Feb 10, 2013 1:39 pm ---- it was very strange would lock off to both but soon as you tried turning it over after doing it at the 180 it would lock up on number 1 on inlet but then done it to the 2.2 and it worked i had a couple of experienced mechanics look at it and they were baffled at it
is there anyone in the south that has vast experience on doing these that could just take a look?

#10: Re: 206 gti 180 cambelt Author: HDI90, Location: sunny stokePosted: Sun Feb 10, 2013 3:00 pm ---- Its timed up wrong, i recall what people call a floating crank so if you dont know what you are doing then you in the tom tit!
#11: Re: 206 gti 180 cambelt Author: broadblaster, Location: south coastPosted: Sun Feb 10, 2013 3:16 pm ---- problem is its not so easy to "just take a look" really you need to strip it all back down and start again so as you know this is not a 5min job on the 180's.

Yes, your out of your depth & haven't got a clue what your doing
Also the phrase " All the gear & no idea " springs to mind.
