2.5 desiel cambelt

[forester]

Hello,
has anyone done a cambelt on a 2.5 desiel ? Am a retired mechanic but have never done one so I need a few tips, cheers.

Ive done one, fairly easy job from memory you have to put dowels in certain holes to stop the engine turning when the belts off i think - i used drill bits
Im sure someone will have done one recently or have a better memory than me

Ive not long done mine to now find that the water pump is leaking, looks like i'll be doing it again alot sooner than I thought.

I could do an idiots guide\walk through or just the techanical bits, I've got pictues to show each stage to. Let me know how much detail you require and I'll start working on a how to.
