And quit whining about not having a computer to plug into the car... we're all about Atari here boy!

lol Atari is fun makes things interesting. ok and yes both cams moved when we went to tighten the belt. now how much damage could happen if i cant get to it. i drive 20 or so miles to work all this week. also what is that tool called that keeps the cams in place well you tighten the belt. im only asking cause i dont see and hole to put a punch into to keep them from moving.

also many thanks to all the help!
