timing, and accessing timing chain

Post by TUBBY-DEUCE »

is there a downloadable bgb repair manual, im find it quite hard to get any info on how to check timing or replacing tensioner. i have a feeling the chain may have skipped a tooth.

cheers

thanks once again pete! i found out why it was running rough, the plastic engine cover was missing and as the car had been stood, rain water had dripped through the engine lid into the spark plug holes, have to get four new spark plugs tomorrow, fingers crossed it will be ok.
