Hi guys, havent posted in a while cause the car has been fairly reliable up until now
Had the brakes fail in traffic which was put down to a bad vacuum pump. Ok ordered the new pump and it arrived last week. Today the mechanic calls and says that the camshaft has failed (melted slightly) and that this was the root of the problem, probably the reason also why the performance and economy was so crap.
Now the real problem begins, he said that the camshaft is very specific to the engine and quite difficult to find the right one. I've got a 1995 Fiat Tempra 1.9TD and I found a camshaft for a Fiat Tipo 1.9D so no turbo. Are these camshafts the same? or are the camshafts for all the Tempras the same?
Many thanks and I hope you guys can help with solving this huge dilemna
