fibre gear wear - urgency 120-130

Hello people,

In the course of having some welding done, I enquired about the noisier than normal engine. My mechanic warned me that it was probably the fibre timing gear.

It's not a terrible clatter, more like the sound of a older diesel.

Can you tell me whether I should change the part now, before my trip across the channel in June (2000 miles approx)or whether it will happily run, albeit a bit noisily, for longer.

Thanks a lot,

Tom
