Default Timing belt how to.. Anyone have.....

Does anyone have a link to an online manual, or just some scanned pics of the manual for timing belt replacement? Having trouble with the plate bolted to the engine for the motor mount, and just need to get this crap finished. Any help would be greatly appreciated, and thank you in advance!! Oh yeah, its a 2000, sohc 4 banger.

Kick ***!!! Thats a damn good link, and everything is exactly the same, just one question about it if you or someone else will know, but the tensioner assembly, the hole behind it on the inner cover, if there is one there im good, but if not, do i need to make one? I think i would rather just grind off the back of the assembly unit instead. Should be good then i think? Any more feedback would be greatly appreciated!

The only modification I heard that needs to be done when going to a mechanical tensioner (2001 and up) is that a tiny bit of the timing cover has to be shaved off. So in short yes you would have to do some modifing of the timing cover but other than that, its 100 percent compatable and should donly take 5 mins tops to modify the cover. I wouldn't modify the tensioner unit, its made of a harder material and why risk damaging your new part, besides plastic is easy to work with.
