Youch.

Didn't realize between all the tensioners, pulleys, and seals, that really should be replaced, would add up to cost so much.

I'm pampered - I've been driving B23/B230 cars for so long now, i'm used to a timing belt job being a 30$ affair, assuming the seals and accessory belts are ok.

So, I again turn here for a possible bit of help...

Has anyone found a place that sells all/most the items I'll need at an affordable price, or maybe a kit intended for this? Definitly want to make sure the pulleys/tensioners are fresh, good belt, new front seals... usual t-belt job (such fun, isnt it?)

I've checked my usual sources but most of them seem to carry only the belt.. it looks like the tensioner and pulley are up for replacement, and i really want to be safe.. snapped belt = bent valves = b-a-d
