Kv6 Cam Belt change Factory video
 
OK - A lot of discussion on just how to change the kv6 cambelts and just how to use the special tools. I just thought to do a quick youtube search and easily found this gem. I am gobsmacked that no-one else has posted it.


So without further ado....

This video has been posted/refered to several times, and it misses an important point --> the setup for the tensioner: https://the75andztclub.co.uk/forum/s...1&postcount=24

So, meanwhile when we are waiting for the next hundred posts:

A good video and well known to members , but it does refer to the older kv6 as fitted to the 800 series so the rear belt sprockets are different .

It covers exactly how to refit the tensioner that was removed. It doesn't cover replacing the tensioner itself granted.

Well it says Kv6 :shrug: I've only been on here 7 years and haven't seen any mention of it in that time.

You obviously get out more than the rest of us - even I've seen it and we only have diesels. :getmecoat:

Life must be more exciting in Tanelorn than it is round here. :D

I found that video very helpful when I did my belts. I had the laptop on the workbench along with the shop manual and watched the video in bits as I did the job. Some parts over and over again!
The engine he was using must have been apart 1000 times. I wish mine came apart and went back together that easy! :banghead:
