Randy, thanks for the tip about removing the cam to avoid using the special tool.

When I bought the car I asked the mechanic that did the government safety check to look at the timing belt and he replaced it because it had gone 100,000 km, so I won't need to touch it for some time.

What is the easiest way to turn the engine for checking the valve clearances? Can I use a remote starter switch? Can it be done with a socket on the crankshaft pulley bolt with the plugs removed, or do I even need to remove the plugs?
