Do yourself a favor.... if you are not going to replace the wp.... Don't touch any of the wp bolts!! I had to change my cam belt on my 4kq 2.2 on the side of the highway and just slid it into place on the cam w/o lossening anything.. IF you loosen the water pump It WILL leak.... You WILL regret it I PROMISE!! HTH Rich Andrews rjandrew@post.cis.smu.edu > I'm looking to replace the timing belt on my 85 Coupe and have a few > questions.
