Cam Belt Change Problems

[Blue2.0GT]

Hello all,

I have a Celica GT 2.0 1995 model, it's one of the best cars I've ever owned. It recently hit 70,000 miles and being 10 years old I opted to have the cam / timing belt changed (it has been changed once before, about 5 years ago). Anyway since it's change whenever accelerating between 2000 - 3000 revs it is like some power has gone missing and the car is pulling something or its pausing to accelerate, above this and its fine again. Also it now fails to start first time from cold.

It's going back to the garage next week but I was wondering if anyone has heard of this and if they can shed any light on the problem, the garage doesn't seem to know what it is without looking at engine further.

could be the belt is a toothout on a pully or the dizzy timing needs to be reset. garage should find it fairly easy. just make sure they actualy check the cam timiong and dont just adjust the ignition timing to compensate

Thanks very much, it's been to garage and it's back to full health now
