Ladies and gents,
Having spent a (greasy) Easter replacing a grey motor timing gear, I figured I'd jot down the process into a document to help the next guy - the workshop manual has most of the process in it, but it is not that transparent, and most enthusiasts don't have a manual. The document (don't panic, its a small one
) brings together the actual process (with pictures
), as well as the required parts, suppliers and opinions over steel vs. alloy vs. fibre gears.
I'm no timing gear expert though - this was my first replacement. Do any of you guys want to read through the document before I post it (I'm thinking here of the guys who have done a number of gears)? PM me an email address and I'll email you a copy.
Cheers,
Harv.
