Default Oil leak and cam belt change

Just got to the stage of removing my cam belt to find where all my oil is pi****ing out from.

Is there a technical thread anywhere on the forum about replacing the cam belt or does anyone know of a good resource for it please?

I want to make sure everything is lined up before I remove it.

Reading previous threads, sounds like it could be the crank shaft oil seal. (Hopefully!!!)

Cheers

Oil leak is probably from front crank seal.

I changed mine last cambelt change and it didn't get any better but thats probaby my fault, it might also be coming from the camshaft seals Ha ha 4 to choose from.

I'll see if I can find my cambelt changing info. PM me or email me and I might have found it by then.

Best of luck.

be carefull not to let the cams spring round as they will if you havent locked them also check the auto adjuster as that is prone to weeping
