Sounds good - make sure when you wrap the belt, you start at the crank and go counterclockwise so any slack ends up over the tensioner, so the tensioner can take it up without altering the cam-crank phasing.

Where does the idle sit now? My wife's old Civic would bounce all over til the cooling system was fully burped, then it'd settle right in.

Default Mine seemed to burp for ever..

Took a cupla drives around town to bleed all the air out for me but didn't notice any change in idle. Nice job for the weekend warrior indeed! Congrats and enjoy the piece of mind knowing you should be safe for the next 60k miles
