3.3 only!

Please, NO 3.0! I can find 3.0 all over the internet.

Seriously, procedurally, it's the same. If you can't figure that out, you shouldn't be doing the timing belt. You should just pay someone to do it and be done with it. We don't want to hear about how you screwed it up.

Thanks bill. I might give it a try.

I decided to back out and have the dealer do it.
They are charging me $880 for TB, W/P, 3 seals, + 1 gal coolant.
One of the mount bolts broke. Service guy says 9hrs for TB ,WP,seals.
Is this a good price when I am buying all the parts?

Since you're supplying parts, I'd also get a price from a trusted independent mechanic. It'll probably be less than a dealer.

Probably about right, Its alot Cheaper than a new engine. (If you tried it yourself and messed up.) It is an interference engine, and while its not too hard, its time consuming and bolts do break things can/do go wrong so its best to leave it to the pros if you arent comfortable doing this job.
