Hi,

I recently purchased a used 2003 Accent with 90k on it. I have decided
since I dont have service records for the car that changing the timing belt
is probably a good idea. I read here that the valves usually get bent when
the belt breaks and can make a mess. (I had a nissan that did that, it was a
real pain to fix) I was wondering if there were any good tips from people
here to make the job as simple as possible. Are the Hanes manuals available,
and any good for these cars ?

thanks,
DaveV

As timing belt jobs go, this one is rather simple. If you've done them
before, this one will not be an issue.
