Congrats Bart. I will be looking forward to your write up (with parts and tool list?) so I can tackle this myself. I guess that I had better wait for the weather to stablize here so if it goes past a weekend thing I can ride the bike or the motorcycle to work.
Nothing like a job well done.

Yup, yes, yeah! I will have a full breakdown completed soon, tools, parts, tips, warnings, it's all gonna be in there!
I took my time, I mean, I really took my time. I would definitely think this could be done in one day, especially once the questions are all out of the way. But, I would rather give myself a full weekend, even if I was to do it again.

Bart,
When you get the pdf done, you can't post it to the How2 yet. Scott's working on that.
What you can do is to upload it to the DownLoad section & if you ask real nice, maybe Scott will move it to the How2 section for you.
I just put pdf's of Kenny's and of Dave Chang's bearing repack there as well if anyone needs them.

Way to go Bart. Nailing this job is no easy feat. Should be an inspiration to all of us who know we need to change the timing belt and spend some quality time with our VX.

I finally finished converting Bart's write up to pdf. I'll get it posted later today. I'll post the link to it here if anyone wants to download it.
I tried not to take many artistic freedoms with the conversion. Where he used colored text, I used highlight. I added Step 6 (it was missing). I renumbered steps 38 through the end (there were 2 step 38's). Oh yeah, I added step 57 ... just 'cause ...
Bart did an excellent job on this & it's well worth adding to your archive for future use.
