I bought the crank shaft pulley holder from SP Tools for $60.00. The engine needs to be lowered about 1/2" allowing clearance for the pulley holder to fit into the pulley. If you can't remove the bolt, at least you'll save yourself alot of grief. The last thing you need is to be 2/3 into the disassembly just to find yourself stuck at step 10 in the manual. You should strongly consider purchasing the Helms manual since you'll need it for other jobs. The D16Z6 cam timing mark location is different from the other engines, so keep that in mind. Another reason to get the original manual... Just completed my first t/b change two weeks ago on the exact same car (95 EX coupe). Turned out well. T/B looked very good after 113k. I also changed the tensioner (for good measure) and A/C idler pully You will also need to change the water pump and accessory belts...Good Luck -- Mike |

Re: Timing Belt Instructions
At a dealership, probably around $450.00 to $550.00, depending on any
