Things to watch out for: There was a recall on the crank bolt -- you should make sure you have the new one or replace it next time you do the timing belt.


Don't wait on this one. Tales abound from those that have had it shear off. Get the new bolt, and soak the old repeatedly with Blaster- for days to be sure- then get it replaced.

If it breaks, not only are you dead on the road, you'll also be looking at having to drill out of the crank end what's left of the bolt.
