FB tuning will more than likely be doing mine later this year. On the second cambelt change is it a good idea to change anything else? Pulleys, pumps etc 

Scooby Regular
You can but if you mess up the timing then it will cost alot more for an engine rebuild

What sort of price we looking at to do cambelt (without parts) ?
if its the first change people just do the belt. mine was second so I did tensioners and pulleys , one of the pulleys was grinding and showing signs off its age.

Yea probably mate but for the sake of 2 / 3 hours labour cost I'd rather just let a pro do it who's done many.Originally Posted by scoobychris300
