[Shotimes] Uh-Oh has become Hmm?

Don't take this the wrong way.  Go to:
http://shotimes.com/index2.html
and you will find all you ever wanted to know about SHO maintenance, and
then some.  You will find more info than you would ever get out of
individual replies.  As for lining up the marks, when you get your new belt
back on, everything must line up.  Period.

> Well, everyone I have a little more information and I need a lot more
help.  I took almost everything apart last night to check the bearings and
they seem to be okay.  A couple things:  When I pulled out the splash guard
every single one of those plastic clips broke.  Am I an idiot or does that
happen a lot?  What do I replace those with?  Next question, I stopped short
of removing the crank pulley because I am hesitant to break the bolt with
the starter.  Is that really the best and easiest way?  Next, does the
original timing belt have any type of markings on it?  THe one that is in my
car is just black with one white stripe that does not align with any of the
markers.  When I aligned the markers on the cam sprockets with the markers
on the inner timing cover, the lower timing cover lined up for the most
part.  How critical is that?  The water pump looked good when I started but
after I had the timing covers off I could see what looked like coolant kind
of behind it near t!
> he CPS.  I'm assuming that's a typical sign of failure.  So, I'm just
going to replace the belt and the pump and I guess the CPS.  My question is
are there any pumps and belts that I should stay away from or what?  Napa
has the best price by far on the water pump and belt.  Autozone has the best
price on the CPS and it's a Wells sensor.  I replaced the Cam sensor with a
wells. Oh, one last question, do I need a puller to get the pulley off?  Any
suggestions?  I'm not really asking for much am I?  :)  Thank you so much to
every one that has responded already.
