  1. OK, I got the boly off. Now how is the best way to line the timing gears all back up and get them in the right spot to re-install the belt. I have removed the #1 sparkplug and need a compression guage to locate TDC. But what about the other bank. What do I do there? When I try to turn the camshaft to line up the timing mark, it gets almost where it needs to be and them jumps 8-10 teeth either direction depending on which way I'm turning it. I got a really good deal on this car and I don't want to screw it up by getting the timing wrong and damaging the engine. The Haynes manual I have is clear as mud as to how to do this. Thanks in advance.
  2. I bought a new water pump and when I went to replace it I had to remove the timimg belt. When I took the belt off the cam shaft gears moved towards each other. I can put the belt back on without removing the crankshaft pulley, which I can't get to come off anyway. My biggest question is Can you line up the timing mark on the crank pulley to a position that will match the correct position of the crank shaft timing gear? It would seem logical., and that @#$% pulley bolt won't come out. I have read the other posts about using the starter and such and I will have to agree with one of the other posters that that is scarry.
