This fall you posted a note re replacement of the Euro timing belt. Well
just a note of thanks! I took your advice, and had all three (timing belt,
water pump & serpentine belt) replaced at my 60K mile service on my
5-speed 95 Euro Camper. The mechanic said (and I saw) that there was
definite wear on the timing belt inner surface. He said the repair was
made much easier since he had to replace the coolant anyway, and once into
that narrow space, he could do it all. I saved on labor charges
significantly. Now I have spares to lug around....... Wei-i
