I show how to change cam belts on a Lotus Esprit V8 plus my method for locking the intermediate shaft gears to prevent catastrophic engine failure.

Great video! Thanks for sharing. Do you have the tool/kit available for pinning the intermediate shafts. I'd like to do this job when I pull my engine to do the belts this winter.
This is a great video! Im hoping to be a V8 owner in the near future and am really enjoying your channel!
If you don't want to do the big engine out during a belt change, what do you think about removing the intermediate shaft pulley bolt while the crank and cams are locked and the cam belts are still on, and then retorquing the bolt with a good Loctite?
Another excellent how-to video from Pancho's! Thank you! Also shows that if you are able to do an engine-in cam belt replacement in 4 hours in your garage how most mechanics are charging around $500-$1000 per hour for this service!
Great video my friend!
Great video…..Glad you took extra precaution by putting the pin on the intermediate shaft!
Great video (again), thanks @Pancho's speedshop. One question, I guess this is with spark plugs out right? Many thanks. Charlie.
