Hi. I'm in the process of ordering all the parts for when I open up my engine to do the timing belt. It will be the first time that I've done it, myself.

Here's what I've ordered so far:

vtec solenoid gasket
cam plug
camshaft oil seals
distributor o rings
dowel pin & o ring


Here's what else I'm going to order:

timing belt
water pump
tensioner & spring
head cover gasket set


I replaced the alternator, AC, and power steering belts a few years ago and I've barely driven the car since then, so I'm not expecting to have to replace them during this job. I'm thinking of using a gatorback timing belt, because that's what was put in it last time, and it's been good for me, no noise.

The car is a 99 EM1, and hasn't had any engine parts servicing since 2007, other than the replacing of the alternator, PS, AC belts and the motor mounts.

Is there anything missing from my list that I should be replacing while going to the trouble of taking everything apart? Thanks.

Front main seal (behind the crank pulley) in case it is leaking. You're already in the area....

The only other thing I can think of is to do a valve adjustment as well, so you'd need the tool in case you don't already have it.

Thanks. I ordered the seal and a crank pulley bolt. Dunno if I'll need the bolt, guess it depends on how easily the other one comes off.

Crank pulley bolt? You can reuse the old one.
