For anyone having the cambelt changed soon, or in the future, may I suggest you get yourself a new crankshaft belt pulley. A few guys here can testify to the repair bill should the 'worse' happen and I escaped the 'bill' by the skin of my teeth...
So to share some info and help anyone else suffering in the future, please also fit a new pully when changing the belt, It's a £20 part waiting to do £0000's of damage!
After putting a lot of my car back together and running her up for the first time in 2 months, I backed her out of the garage and found the missing woodruff key from my crank pulley! check out the cracks..... please get a new one, make it a part of every cambelt change!
