This may sound a bit obvious, but have you clicked "search" at top right of the forum screen and typed "cambelt"?
Lots of results will appear!!![:D][:D]

Yes I have done that but I seem to remember a "how to...." summary. I may be wrong but I'm sure people will put me right sarcastically, with silence or otherwise

I've done a couple on the BX 16V but I understand they are totally different to the Xantia 1.8 engine.
If my memory serves me right, I think that is the engine that a mod for the tensioner was available which was either spring loaded as opposed to the solid adjustment or vice versa (ie) solid in lieu of the spring loaded one.
With this element of doubt being involved, I'd suggest you get that part confirmed before you venture any further.
