Is yours totally gone? I've got one somewhere that's not in very good shape, but does still work... Could be better than nothing. I've got a blown engine on its way to me as well which'll have a set, but I'll probably not have it for a couple of weeks...

If you decide to get a new one, and you go down the K3> route, make sure you buy the spring and the gasket, they show in teh fiche as being part of the assembly but they're not.

I've sheared the thread of the top boltin the tensioner so the oil leaks from there. I am going to do a temporary fix with araldite tomorrow (cheers Ian

). Because of this I can wait a while if that's needed for a good second hand one. So if the aralite fix holds I can wait until you have the engine.

Cool... No idea if they'll be good r not, of course, it's a non-runner engine but the rear one'll probably be fine. (it's always the front one that goes, isn't it...)

It's the rear one that I have knackered.

D'oh!

Well the araldite plan didn't work so I guess I will have to go and source a new one.

Damn my incompetence
