95 2.3L, 5spd.
I'm planning on installing a new timing belt in the next week or two. I've installed a few belts on other makes and some chains before. So, after reading on the forum about the mark line-ups it looks easy. I will also install a new water pump, thermostat, and belt tensioner while down there. Its a high mileage engine and I see some evidence there is likely oil seal leakage behind the belt cover. I've also noted that many of the timing belt kits come with two seals. One is for the cam and the other is for what?
Is there a thread that explains how to do this? Logic dictates the gear comes off, then a unique puller is used followed by a unique seal press that can work around the shaft still in-place.
Look for any and all feedback.
thanks,
Greg
