Cambelt Kits

The cambelt or timing belt ensures synchronised rotation of the crankshaft & the camshaft, it connects these two components and controls the opening & closing of the engine's valves. If the cambelt weakens it could eventually snap, in the best of cases this will result in the engine stopping completely but in the worst cases it could potentially wreck the engine as the metal valves could collide with the metal pistons.

​

Common symptoms of a broken cambelt include:

• Strange noises from the engine

• Poor acceleration

• Leaking oil from the engine

• Increased smoke emitted from the tailpipe

• Increased fuel usage

• Overheating engine

• Car does not start- the belt has snapped so the engine won't be able to turn on
