Hi,I have just replaced my cambelt, tensioners, waterpump and harmonic balancer. Everything is timed up and torqued down correctly but on the first start up, I am seeing a small amount of cambelt 'wobble' on the tensioners. I am only talking about half a mm of wobble here but since it's my first cambelt change, I'm not sure if this will settle? Is this something to expect from a new cambelt? cheers |

doesn't sound excessive at all, as long as the tension is correct and there's no discernible wobble on any of the pulleys it wont come off.________________________________________ need a part number? get on here - http://public.servicebox.peugeot.comBring on the Trumpets. |

Do you think there might be any chance the slight wobble could build heat up in the belt and cause premature failure?? Should a new cambelt track 100% from the get go, or do they usually take a little running before they find their line? Just trying to cover all angles here  More for peace of mind if anything.cheers |
