Timing belt observation 850

I just installed my timing belt per Bay 13. Pure Genius. As I am trying to get the old one off with out much success. I say to myself "what are you going to need the old one for?" Tin snips cut it in half, came right out. when trying to get the new one by the balancer; I jack the engine up about 1/4" with a piece of wood under the oil pan. Also good way to check the motor mount. Lastly a piece of 1/4" dowel rod 2 feet long is a good helping hand when putting the assy belt back on.

Hope it makes someones life easier. Rick

Thanks Bay 13
