Hi everyone I am in need of help please
i purchased a Fiat ducato Rapido motorhome in November i have because the dealer couldn’t tell me when the cambelt was changed I booked into garage 400 miles ago for replacement. The vehicle has done just under 45000 miles one previous owner. We broke down on the motorway last Friday the alternator belt has been shredded against the lower plastic case and then must have broken and bits of belt have gone into the bottom crank pulley. I stopped as soon as I saw the battery light come on.
it took 12 hours to get recovered but now at a garage. the timing belt is intact but garage hasnt looked yet to check the timing. Does any Fiat mechanic know how many teeth a belt would need to jump to bend the valves in the head. As can be seen the alternator belt has worn away the bottom cover. Any info would be greatly appreciated and also where I could get a manual.
