    Outstanding write up Bart! Very detailed and easy to understand, you’re a natural at technical writing.

    Thanks, Richard! Yeah, after I figured this out, I knew I just had to do the write-up. The manual is ridiculously vague and the videos are not so great either. I mean, they make it look like a 5 minute job to remove the old belt and replace it with a new one. The video MAKES NO MENTION of the spring loaded camshaft pulleys going to 12 o'clock and I just can't believe that!

    Excellent write up.
    I still have a way to go before my timing belt, but I am making a copy of your write up for future use.
    Great job.
