Thanks in advance

Ask Fiat for the timing belt "kit" - you'll get th belt, aux and tensioners.

you might as well do the water pump i did when changing all the belts,if it goes you have to change the cambelt again anyway its just peace of mind..my advice only though.

Well Fiat wanted £146 for the kit so you can guess what I said to that. I managed to get it for £88 elsewhere. Still not exactly cheap but has to be done I guess. I can't afford to get the water pump aswell Oh I hate being poor!
