ouch lern;t the hard way like me, you go two things wreckers charge between 150-175 for a 2nd hand timing cover, or there is a site that has them new overseas for about 80 us dollars :?

2nd with that crank bolt, discounted the coil, put it in netruel, put a 6 sided impact socket with a breaker bar onto the chassis, give it a quick crank with the starter and that pops it off no worries.

mayaswell replace chain dampners if they look worn when u have the case off, carful also while tightening the head bolt onto the timing chain cover, its just thin aluuminum and can snap very very easy as u have seen.
