Hi
My cambelt snapped on Friday due to the tensioner being bad and very noisy.
Water pump was not siezed and we have replaced both of these and the belt.

Snapped before I could get into 2nd gear was only doing 12mph.
Put all back together today with new parts and now have no compression on cylinder No. 4
Have checked and there is no broken followers.
Engine type is C12NZ only done 70k miles
Just wondering what else this could be?

Thanks for any help.

if you've got no compression on cylinder 4 you've got bent valves. should only be the two though.

Got engine stripped down. Found one bent exhaust valve.
Is there anywhere on the internet that sells these?

You should be able to get them from
Your local motor factors mate. Don't forget a new stem seal too, would be silly not to replace while its out
