Sorry if this is a duplicate message....
I'm half way through the 60k proceedure. Following the instructions
on the website. timing belt is in place but I have a couple of
reassembly questions:
1) To remove the crank pulley I did as the proceedure says (slide 19mm socket over cap screw head, rest breaker-bar against sub-frame, turn key). I'm curious about reassembly though: How much torque? Do I have to take steps to keep the motor from turning?
2) Timing belt tensioner. The advice I was given was to allow the tensioner to swing against the timing belt, tighten nut, turn motor 2 complete turns, loosen nut and then tighten again. I received this advice from a helpful v8sho list member. He admitted, however, that it had been awhile. Is this the correct proceedure?
Thanks,
Brent
