Get some! I'm going to try that with the timing and balance belt next time...it almost hurts me now to think how much time I've wasted.

Can't help but wonder how many times he tried that before perfecting this technique. I've changesd a number of belts on a VW Beetle and it really isn't that hard - wonder what the hurry is?
