Hello:

Anyone near the Boston area or within 50 miles of driving distance who can let me either rent or borrow the cam locking tool for 2.7t timing belt job? I have also hear that people have done the timing job without the cam locking too. Would that be ok?

Please PM or text me at 617-308-3835 I would really appreciate it.

Thanks,

Prospeeder

This is pretty cheap and then you own it. Its possible to do without the tool, but you dont get the tension set quite right. You need a way to break the pullies free from the cams to use the lock tool correctly. Like a pulley puller or a gentle hit with a rubber mallet.
