Yeah Cowboy, get your facts straight!

If the timing belt broke on that year, you should just be able to put it back in time and a new belt and be ready to go...

Either way you don't want a broken T-belt, but it shouldn't destroy your engine.

yeah, I thought it said he had a 95, but he said "since 95"

still need to do the timing belt though

I thought he said 95 at first also. I had to go back and read it again after seeing the rims that he has. I agree with doing the T-belt for regular maintanence. Sure, it wont screw up the engine but ya dont want to be a couple hundred miles away from home and have it snap. $200 in parts and a days labor is worth piece of mind.

Hey Pliz: Some of the rims are on the wrong side, they're directional.
