Update on this i spose, if you hadn't heard - cambelt slipped on the motorway doing 80'ish
Realised the bell housing on the g.box had fallen off and would explain a loud bang i heard 3 days earlier; perhaps something hit into the fly and caused a "jolt" on the crank -> cambelt, who knows..
Anywho, retimed cambelt, it's all pretty well seized up, possilby valve/precup failure or "simply" wedged fly, i don't know until i start taking bits apart. Need transport ASAP.
Think the next POA is to get a car so i can at least get around, then sell/break one or the other.. still stuck in dilemma... pretty gutted.
