JX 1,6 TD Twin Belt Setup

[MatikoT31.6TD89]

Hi clift_d,
This forum really is of much help for pure lost beginners like me.
I just "inherited" the family 1989 T3 Westy 1.6TD JX Transporter and would love to browse through the manual to get a restoration plan.

Twin belt is slack and I would love to replace it. The shims advice seems top( thank you muttleypup).

Hi clift_d

I’d love a download copy of the JX manual if you wouldn’t mind.
Much appreciated

Good afternoon all, Fish here from Shropshire.
I have had my 1986 1.6td with the jx engine for many years, I have had it maintained and replaced the majority of parts, clutch, turbo, fuel tank, windscreen, rear wishbones, renovated the body and all of the other general day to day service items.
I must admit that the old bus has been in storage for a couple of years, but everything I pop to see him (every 4 weeks or so) he starts on the button 1st time every time, quite impressive for an old boy !
Anyways, the last few times the old squeal from the V belts (or could be the water pump?) is getting louder and I need to examine it. My old mechanic has since retired (how selfish!!) and I will have to do the work myself, in a round about way, is there any chance that I could have a copy of the hallowed Bentley manual so as I can get my hands oily and keep the old boy on the road for , hopefully, years to come....
Many, thanks

I've also PM'ed you download links for the JX engine manuals - Bentley was compiled for the US market and so it doesn't have any information on the 1.6TD engine as it wasn't sold there.
