Okay with the help of John O., Adam K, and Martin B's writeups and pictures I changed the timing belt on the '93 yesterday.
Took my time and everything went fairly smoothly (not even a barked knuckle); but, now it's time to start it...
And I have this fear that all *did not go smoothly*... this is an interference engine after all...
so... I need some reassurance, if possible here are the details:
1) the right pully did move when I was fitting the new belt. I moved it back to the original position and kept going.
2) when I rotated the engine (following Clymer instructions for 'seating' the belt tensioner) the engine turned without any problems.
Does 2 mean all is well?
Thanks,
Really!
