As mentioned in another post, re the van breaking down.
The garage rang this afternoon to say the cam belt had not broken
But although the belt and tensioners were ok, somehow the belt had slipped some cogs on the diesel injector pump, so of course the timing of that would be haywire.
They had never seen this happen before
The pump has been removed and tested at a specialist, and returned as no fault found. It has been fitted back onto the engine, and the old belt fitted and just run for 20seconds as there are no oil/water pipes on the engine at the moment, and the engine ran fine. So no major damage done.
A new belt and tensioners are to be fitted, and the engine tested properly, I await a phone call to give the result.
