    This stuff from chem guys is the shit, really makes it look nice and doesn't smell bad at all. Also has the bonus of providing great UV protection. Doesn't have the slippery greasy feel of armor all.

    So you never removed the belt from where it was on the sprockets? What did you replace besides the tensioner?

    Belt was removed. Took it off, re-align the cam gear sprockets and crank gear sprocket to what I've seen on the interweb (which would be a little before the timing marks). The tension pulley snapped so I had to replace that.

    Timing belts aren't a mystery, nor was this my 1st time doing a timing belt job. I always do research when attempting to work on something I've never worked on. Just strange to me when all that chatter occured. But all is good, I hope.

    That looks better, found it all while packing the garage, figured I should put it on before I lose it.

    Broke Trail for a minute today until I ran into a forest service dude. Not a lot of snow but still fun.

    Also saved a doe from a coyote so that's a plus.
