Crank bolt removed...



I've removed the crank bolt using 'M's method involving inserting a
transmission bolt that has been removed into the plug hole on the side
of the flywheel housing(what a trick! - instead of all the commotion,
everyone should use this!) and into a hole on the side of the flywheel.
Problem is, in order to align the hole in the flywheel I had to move the
engine and now that the crank and cam bolts are removed, I have no way
of moving the engine back to TDC.

	IS IT NECCESSARY? Can I exchange the timing belts w/o rotating the
engine back to TDC as long as the timing is kept corret? THANKS!
