    If the timing belt is a tooth out it'll be in limp mode.
    If the cam timing is a tooth out it'll just run like ****.

      Agree. Did you (anybody) suggest this to HMS-S6 in his "Too weak" thread?

        could the timing out problem have been caused by some movement of the engine set up ie cams/crank when the mechanic was changing the timing belt ? thus having to re-adjust the timing very slightly on the Dizzy?
        When I drove back from the Garage the car seems to drive perfectly so I guess the timing must be ok now?

          No you don't need to touch the dizzy when doing a cam belt. Me's think he got the timing out and instead of looking a fool said it was the dizzy!
