Well......I got the job done,My fans are not coming on though,I ordered a temp sensor and should have it by Monday. The job went pretty good,The problems I had was,One of the 4 bolts that go to the crankshaft damnpner stripped out and I had to drill it and use an easyout to get it out, Got a new one in Nashville. I had a hard time setting the timing belt tensioner,The thread I used said to "hand" tighten the nut to set the tension on the timing belt,I had to crank it down a little tighter with a wrench to get it to set the right way. Looking around under the car I noticed the inner passenger side cv boot had a leak,I'll be doing it on Sat. I looked a little closer to see what it would take to change it out and noticed a "big crack" on the wheel side of the shaft...........Whooooo, I thought what the heck???????? I mean I put some miles on Doob,183,000 at the moment. Anyway as I looked closer at the crack,It just turned out to be loose paint......Whewwww. So I'm almost finished and I'll keep in tune with yall.


Thanks Nor for the coaching!
