Just about to replace the timing belt on my G16B.
Anyone done one lately and if so, is there anything I should be aware of when doing it?
Thanks all

check your cam and crank seals while your there...
also check for play in the tensioner...

I would replace the seals anyway they are cheap and you can garauntee they will leak before the next belt is due

mud4b,
Can you change these without to many dramas or do you need to pull the camshaft and crank etc

If you change the seals just make sure you mark the cam gear as it can go on 2 ways.
