Thanks a lot tomk and Meirscheartz,
you are definitely right that locking crankshaft and cam is very important.. I read Wayne's book,,,Looks like locking the crank only requres a drill bit... but locking the cam need a special tool....which i guess would be pretty expensive.... Any other cheap way to do it?? And my car is 02 so it has 5 chains... it has less chance of skipping the timing chain compared with latter models... but i guess i still need to lock the cam...
I am not going to do it now ....probably its gonna be two month latter when it gets warmer outside...im just gathering informations..and minimize the chance of messing up...
