I'm going to have a go at changing the cambelt on my 325 next week and am ordering the bits now.

So far on the shopping list I have:

Cambelt
Waterpump (assume this comes with gasket?)
Tensioner
Distributor cap
Rotor arm
Spark plugs
Power steering belt

The only bit I'm stuck with is that I can't find the alternator belt on the GSF website. Am I being thick? Please help!

Yes.

oil filter, air filter, fuel filer, oil, coolant, and PAS fluid are all a good idea too if you haven't thought about them already.

Thanks for the help. I thought they may be calling it the fan belt but wasn't sure!

I'll order that lot tonight!

Yes.
Open the box to check ! I bought my water pump from GSF, asked if it came with a gasket and the guy said yes, so I checked and it wasn't in there. Lucky I did cos I live quite a long way away, the trip back to pick up the gasket would have been inconvenient to say the least....
These are sensations as hard to forget as they are to ignore.....
