Broken Cam Belt

If you find your engine has no compression, it could be that your cam belt has broken.  Your cam belt has a limited lifespan, and should be checked regularly for signs of wear and tear.  Unfortunately, a broken cam belt can result in damage to your cylinder head, including bending  valves and breaking guides, and in severe circumstances result in serious  damage to  your engine.

Jenkins can inspect the condition of your cam belt and replace it if necessary. If your cam belt has broken, we can take a look at your engine to determine the extent of the damage and give you a quote for repairing the damage.

We can;

• Remove and pressure test your cylinder head
• Repair cylinder heads that are not cracked
• Replace cracked cylinder heads
• Replace bent valves and cracked guides
• Recut valve seats

If your cylinder head needs replacing, we have certain reconditioned cylinder heads available off the shelf.
