[s-cars] '92 TBelt R&R - I'm Going In!

[mdbishoff at attbi.com]

Well, this is it. I'm going in. Gloves on. Scalpel ready.

I bought all the parts for the tbelt R&R according to the urs4.com
instructions. Bought new OEM tbelt, tensioner, mrbelt, water pump, thermostat
and front crank seal. Got all the parts including 3 Mann oil filters, 1 Mann
air filter and an OEM fuel filter for about $185 shipped from Don at Parts
Connection.

For tools, I begged and pleaded for someone in the local area to rent the
crank pulley holder for the "dreaded crank bolt" removal and installation. The
alignment of the planets worked in my favor and I was not only able to rent
this tool for a nice price, but also got a very, very cool front seal remover.
For now I'll keep my benefactor anonymous, but let me just say "THANKS"! The
Audi community is amazing! I have never seen such a helpful group of folks.

Until it doesn't make sense, I'm planning on following the description on the
urs4.com site for the R&R. I'll keep in touch as the day goes on.

Going in!!!

Mike
