I understand why you drive it. You gotta do what you have to.
I'm kinda glad I don't have a regular job because it keeps me from spending a stupid amount of cash on my truck.....

Ok dug into timing belt....and i cant tell if its good...there no dry cracks what so over....and theres marks on the gears with a paint stick so i think it may have been done...belt looks to be in great shape...nothings chewed up all the rips look clean and no dry cracks like i said....

This is what scares me...the belt feels a little loose, and this has a manual tensioner so i can tighten it up. BUT its not loose enough to jump time its nice and snug on the gears but on the right hand side it goes straight down and i can push it about a half an inch in. Now should i leave it? I dont want to tighten it and find that it was as it should be. Like i said theres no way it would be able to jump time its no that loose...just has a little slack...

And if you look at the gear it has two paint makes that look fairly fresh which makes me thing the belt has been done....i cant find any problems with it...i pulled it a little to test its durability and it shes tough...what are your guys thought before i put it back together
