Default Help please! Rover 75 2.5 v6 timing belt

hi,

ive had a rover 75 v6 sat on my driver for sometime and really want to get it going.

i plugged it in and it had 2 faults, multiple misfire and system too rich.

looking under the bonnet it was clear that the upper timing belt casing on the camshaft pulley was wobbling as you tried to start it up. having removed the casing you could visibly see the pulley wobbling as if the securing washer bolt has been misthreaded in somewhere and the pulley isnt rotating properly.

before i found this when you tried turning the engine it would catch but stall after a second on two. the person i purchased it off said it just cut out on them.

suggestions on where to go next.....
