i dont see why not could use another person to yak to. so far its the 25th of this month im pretty sure that is a sat. if not its what ever the date is close to that which is a sat. Make sence cause im lost and i just typed it. I live in the temecula valley in a town called murrieta. Well sort of i live in the hills abouve murrieta temecula and its called lacresta so ya thats it for now i got on the tb. As for your kits i never have ought from bl but ecs i have a lot for many things and they are fair with parts super fast shipping nothing ever broken. blah blah blah

 

blau and ECS both have reputable kits

we don't need any special tools for this. as long as you have basic sockets, some torx bits, some hex sockets, and a breaker bar we should be fine.

 

Word don't buy into the hype about the cam lock tool and all that other bs and I also highly recomend Blauparts.com great kits easy to work with and usually cheaper then ECS, just my 2 pennies.

 

yeah, I was actually talking about that very thing (cam lock tool) when I asked the question. I just thought it was necessary, so thanks for the info.

 

well i bought one it was like 80 bux ok no i lie but this should be some great times i guess just hopefully no one movs the damn cam gear while belt is off

 

the trick there is to line up the tick marks on the upper gear and to make a second tick mark for lining up the bottom gear. that way, you can line them up again if they move. it's really not that big of a deal. I actually had to manually line these marks up after putting the belt on one tooth off the first time. it's easy enough.

 

o i know its just that when u go to a mechanic they try to scare you when i went to get my car scanned with vag one time, which they charged me like 60 bux and said they could not get it to work, i was just curious about the tb job what it all involves they of coarse where saying that it has 5 valves which i knew but they were also saying ho if ur off by one u can blow your motor up and will only charge you 1500 to do the job

 

hahahaha that's such a load of crap!

your motor would not blow up. it would run a little funny with the timing either retarded a bit or advanced a bit by one tooth, but I'm sure it would still be driveable. I'm sure they're just looking for work like everyone else, but at 1500 bucks for a tb job, they're not going to get it.

I'll do it for 1400 though. I'm just saying..

 

ha ha 1400 got yourself a deal and as for all of that i iknow im not retarded i have built many motors and worked on even more cars im not retarded but its funy to go into these mechanic shops and just see how thy screw people over

 

Spheromike and Boob5.... are you still planning on doing this the 25th? Just checking in with you guys.
