Hi all, first post, and I have tried searching first admittedly, tired from todays Volksfest in bristol so even managed to do my username wrong, oops. should read Matt initially doh!
More to the point, we've got a mates 1.2 sport 2002 (new shape) here (forgive my lack of SEAT knowledge, im a mk2 golf boy heheh.) Basically we think it's done the uual jumping chain breaking the tensioner that seems all so common. Theres some shards of metal in cylinder 2 also, sat atop the piston so the ehad is coming off with an expected damaged valve(s) from it going out of time. my mate i happy to do the chaina nd that, he's pretty happy he knows what he is doing, but we would like to be able to go from a few instructions, also need to know how to actually time it up, considering its a chain and that.. belt on my golf, no worries, so this is a new one on me, not to him, but again, we just want some backup from some better knowledge
oh, its only got 40k on it also.. and a broken near side window regulator which sounds like another common one..
all we know so far really is, the chain and the tensioner need doing - but then we need to know how to time it and the head needs to come off to be checked, and find what the metal shards are..
thanks all, hope to get some useful advice to hep our mate out
