Timing Belt replacement

[Paulos]

Hiya Guys

This is my first post so in at the deep end as they say.

I am going to be changing the timing belt on my 1993, Corolla 1.3 XLi 16 valve this weekend.

I have done timing belts before and I am mechanicaly minded.

Has anyone got any instructions/advice on this?

Any help would be very much appreciated

I was reading on doing the timing belt on my '02 camry v6, but I opted out of it due to the complexity of the job. Haynes manual mentioned so many steps to it, i.e. 1st cylinder head adjustment, marking the belt placements, turning the pulley, etc. I gave the job to the local neighborhood shop. The replaced the water pump as well. They needed to warm up 2 bolts that were stubborn to be removed.
