Guest 537playing Posted July 20, 2009 Report Share Posted July 20, 2009 After reading several posts and one failed attempt, I've successfully change my timing belt. On my first attempt, I had to stop work because I was unable to remove the crankshaft bolt. What a bummer!! Soooo... I tried the starter trick method to remove this bolt. It was so easy.. Just have a long enough bar on the lug, brace it, the turn the car on for only a second or two. It was done. The next stumbling block was putting the new belt back on. Compared to the old belt, the new belt was stiff. It was close to impossible to put it on. I resorted to removing the tensioner and putting it back on with the belt on it. Other than that, the rest of the procedures are as simple as reading the other posts out there in regards to this replacement. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
