Looking at abelt/pump kit by gates on the bay, it says it's for a MHA engine number but I have a MHB engine number. Didn't think there was different cam kits for the 1.7,any ideas ? Thanks

The 1.7 kit is different from the 1.25 1.4 and 16 16v. The tensioner is different on the 1.7s.

It took me about 3 n a half hours to fit my t belt. I had the use of a 2 post ramp at my work cause it might be a bit fiddly to do it on the floor.
