Hi all,

All ok apart from got a noisey valve. Did adjust them but in manual i have it said line crank pully notch up with 0 marking on timing cover. Only problem is my crank pully dosent have a notch in it!!

Anyone got any tips for getting it all set up ok for adjusting the bad boys?

Many thanks in advance.

Used the dent in the bottom cam belt pulley as opposed to ancillary belt pulley. As stated in manual.
