I'm getting ready to replace the timing belt on my 1999 Rodeo LS 3.2L. Does anyone have a link to the detailed write up I've seen. I've done a few searches, but I had trouble narrowing it down. Thanks in advance for any help.

Thanks for the reply and the link. Definitely some good threads in that search. Perhaps I wasn't adjusting the search options to give a decent number of results.
Thanks again.

It takes some pratice.
I belive I used +3.2 +timing +belt. There is a search guidelines post over in Talk that can explain it all in a bit more detail.

I've got a 94 Rodeo v-6 with 128k on it. Best vehicle I've ever owned. Around 126k I got nervous and had the timing belt changed (before I found this website.) When I went to pick it up, I asked the tech at the dealership if I could see the old belt, I couldn't believe it looked almost new. The only wear was on the back side from the tension pulley. We got to talking and he told me that he has never seen a belt break and if one of the notches on the belt comes off, and causes the belt to jump a notch, the only damage it will do is leave you on the side of the road needing a timing belt. I'm planning on 300k out of my Rodeo and it's seen it's last timing belt.

I have a good write-up that was forwarded to me (paper). I'll see if I can find that. Here's a link to the thread when I was getting ready to change my timing belt: LINK no promises on the write up. I've moved since then and haven't laid hands on it since but I will check. --jeremy BTW the removal tool didn't fit so don't worry about tracking it down. Bumping the started worked fine.

when looking for a container to hold drained brake fluid, find a container that is different from the beverage you are currently consuming.

I've changed a few 6VD1 belts and all looked brand new, even the first one with just over 130K on it.
The timing belt tensioner is what gets weak, causing the belt to slacken and possibly jump a tooth.
While the belt is out, you may as well do the water pump unless you just love tearing down the front of the motor.
