Jim,
Its not a bad job. My only caveat is if you rent the tools from Blau make sure you have everything you need to do the job.
I decided to do something additional and kept the tools a little too long and got nailed by a substantial late fee.

I've noticed Blau has a timing belt kit for like $140, was wondering if this is the way to go, or are there other kits or sources of parts that are preferred by the list wisdom? I'm thinking of doing if myself, and renting the tools from Blau if I get the kit from them......then again, if I can find a shade-tree mechanic that charges a reasonable rate somewhere in the mountains of Colorado, I'm also more than happy to farm it out. It makes me a little nervous, actually......but, I've been nervous before (hell, I'm nervous everytime I mess with this car!). Any helpful hints/direction more than welcome. Thanks!Hope everyone enjoyed the long weekend!Best regards,Jim Fleischer'95 urS6 avant (waiting on PCV and restrictor valves and cam cover gasket)
