How much do you usually charge for a job like this?

[ShawnCFarm]

@sonyxploder Well I don't really go into that on the videos, but its alot cheaper then taking it to the shop to do it as I don't have the overhead. If you PM I will tel you

Amazing video. Although I'm probably going to use a spanner wrench for that pull you were using channel locks to move. Thanks for taking time to make video so helpful

[ShawnCFarm]

@passat1805 I hope it helps alittle

Shawn, overall great job, well illustrated, and good pointers. I've looked at a few videos on the same topic. I've had to go back into my timing belt and cooling system due to a leak and this time around because of some of the things you pointed out I found I'm also having to replace my serpentine belt tenioner pulley, The guides for the belt ribs are worn and it's also squeeking like the bearings are also starting to go as well. Keep doing your thing (!!) and helping the masses.

@flojogrande Thanks my friend I hope to be making videos for a long time

yeah those bolts on the crank pulley are hell, i was putting on a water pump, and went ahead and replaced it all

The tensioner has an arrow on the outter bezel and an arrow or mark on the inner cam, these marks are suppose to point at each other. I believe it is possible to overtighten the timing belt if your not careful or don't know how much to tighten it. If you replace the water pump although most manuals don't recommend anything other than a light coat of coolant...you can place radiator hose grease (it's specially made for rubber) or Pool pump O-ring lube will also work. (don't use vaseline).
