Could I borrow the balance shaft values for the Krikit tool? (pics)
Ok, so My car has an answer to Danno's Terrorist rock...I had a terrorist bolt... It decided to back out and lodge itself between the belt cover, and the balance belt. Needless to say, My balance belt is nearly dead after driving it for a block, and into my garage and onto ramps.
I have a spare balance belt but no 9201...I do have a krikit and would like to see the values so I can put on my spare balance belt with no problems. time for pics!
first 2 are the damage caused by the terrorist bolt, the other one is the culprit himself!

Which bolt backed out? Looks like it took a bite out of the timing belt roller adjaced to the water pump impeller.

The bolt that backed out was the one that holds the timing belt cover in place, and screws into the oil pump. Yeah, it did take a bite out of my NEW roller :fist of rage:
As for the green looking stuff, I don't see what you're talking about...but the water pump is new. the only coolant leak I know of on this engine is on the oil cooler, that huge bolt on the side under the oil filter boss... and no, i don't have any milkshake.
I'm leaking all sorts of fluids...Mostly, I'm leaking coolant from the oil cooler, and oil from the following:
1) Front main seal
2) Lower balance shaft
3) Oil pan gasket (maybe)
I'm gonna wait until I get another car to fix all of these leaks, as this is my only car right now, and I've not the ability to leave it torn apart in the garage for long periods of time. I'm also half tempted to just rebuild my spare engine (the one that came in the car) as time allows, and toss it in one day.

HAHAHA! Ok, I found the said "Green stuff" Yeah, that's coming from the oil cooler. that's the lower balance shaft cover and the coolant found a fun little path to there. It really doesn't leak much, i just have to toss in a 16 oz bottle of water every month, and she doesn't even get below the "minimum" mark on the coolant resevoir.
