I've bought an ex-Royal Mail Escort 55 1.8D Van (2001, it's the Endura diesel engine, non-turbo) with 22,000 on the clock. I've got no evidence that there's been a timing belt change before I bought the van, so I'm very eager to get this job done soon.
Can some one explain what is usually done when a timing belt is changed on these models ? The last mechanic I spoke to about this mentioned something about "tensioners" (which I don't understand). Is some other belt changed as well as the timing belt ?
Cheers
