Slipped Timing Belt

Post by eco16v »

Been offered a 95 SRi with a slipped timing belt, would it just be a matter of realigning the timing marks and fitting a new belt or is there likely to be major damage?

it all depends how far its slipped and which way, just time it up and do a compression test thats going to tell you if there is anymore damage
