BRG 120+ project(ish)

Well this didn't start off as a project but I keep finding things that don't work. Done so far are: service inc oil filter and oil, new plugs, new air filter and fuel filter. When doing this I found that one of the plug leads wasn't on correctly and was causing a miss, sorted after service. Then coil pack was arking so new coil packs fitted. Yesterday car decided to start on 2 cylinders and after a while run on 3. Found the problem to be cam sensor and the timeing is out a little.........so tonights job is cam sensor from scrappy to put me on and timing belt kit to go on and get it running on 4 again!! I will get some pics later and get them on, haven't taken any as yet.

Oh and the exhaust manifold gasket has gone and I fitted a new rocker gasket to sort a small leak. If I can get a gasket then I will sort the manifold tonight to.

Yeah......more than I wanted! Removed the timing belt to find it was a tooth out, realigned cams and bottom pully and it was still a tooth out??!!?? Turns out the bottom pully had a chunk out of it on the inside so was sitting on the shaft wrong. Oh the joys!!
