I am not sure if my follow-up went through. Sorry about the double post if it did. Anyhow...
Thanks to Don and Bob.
Now I have just a few more questions, and then I think I am quite ready for the timing belt job. (Damned, I thought I was going to give it to Marino. :)
1. Is it a good idea to also change belt cover gasket?
2. Regarding the cam and I-shaft seals, please see:
http://www.fcpgroton.com/Volvo700900gaskets.htm
"6842273 / Cam and Intermediate shaft seal fits B23,B230 2 required". Is this the right part? It does not say it fits B230FT but I couldn'd find any other part that fits this application. (Couldn't talk to Nick Bauer, off hours.)
3. Don, could you please comment on the rope trick for removing crank pulley bolt? Is there any danger of damaging the piston face? How about lint left inside the chamber? It's not that I don't want to pay for 5284, it's rather that I _think_ the rope trick combined with the belt+board trick (per Chris Mullet) is an excellent solution. (You can tell I've studied the 700/900 FAQ.)
Thanks again,
Lih-Yen
