[V8] Timing Belt Saga

[Mike Arman]

When I did the belt on my V8, I grabbed a handful of medium sized zip 
lock bags from the pantry ("Honey, we're out of zip-locks, put them 
on the shopping list?").

Each subassembly got the applicable hardware in a zip-lock. Bag #1, 
bumper fasteners, bag #2, headlight mounting stuff, bag # 3, 
crossmember hardware, bag #4 belt cover bolts and so on.

Made putting it back together a breeze, no searching for the correct 
hardware for each stage of re-assembly. When the bag is empty, I 
*know* all the appropriate fasteners for that phase are back in 
place, if the bag isn't empty, well where does *this* one go? Also no 
surprises along the lines of what's all this oil pouring out on the 
ground? (you left the oil line fasteners off . . . that's the two 
left-over allen screws in the bag, doofus!)


Best Regards,

Mike Arman
90 V8, not just a car, an ADVENTURE!
