Hi, I found theCamhaft belt and pulley "kit" on Amazon of all places.... it said it was for an early Mondeo 1.8 or 20.....I finally managed to get one using the engine number from my local guy - everyone wants a Reg Number, and when it's not for the donor (C12YNE = CRYNE) gets you nowhere. According to him, it was an RS1800i Fiesta, which sounds right for the engine. The really good news was that although there seemed to be play in the belt, as it's pulled by the Crank and the failed tensioner is on the "return side" the belt apparently hadn't slipped any teeth. The new belt and pulleys have all been fitted, and the engine runs fine! I unfortunately had to use a combination of the crank pulley removal methods, both lowering the engine, and using a lever to moved the engine away from the chassis member. The "modification" builder hadn't left much room between the crank or water pump pulleys and the rejigged chassis member when squeezing the engine in. But, alls well that ends well, and I might be able to sort some of the other bits and pieces out over the winter now - one good results restores the positivity and drive!! StevieCee
