	I got a cam, the housing and lifters from the scrap yard today for £15 all in. Took about 30 mins to remove the whole lot.

	Yeah I bought new, cam and lifters came together in a set, was ordered and bought from a local motor factors and wasn't very expansive at all. Easy to fit aswell I can't remember the price though sorry

	Had the same issue with my old 1.4 8v fitted new cam and lifter set and it was spot on after that

	Is this common? I'll have to do this at weekend because I work nights! Take the cam out and just make sure everything is free and not stuck?
