Thanks for the reply BG, I have looked through some of the archives here, but it's pretty tedious, particularly on a dial up connection! One thing I learned was that when the timing belt is replaced (recommended at 70K) the tensioner/pulley should also be replaced. I looked up the parts and there are apparently two versions, mechanical and automatic (hydraulic) tensioning. Not sure which is the one that has the weak pulley. A recent post states that the pulley failed and ruined the motor, so I presume the 5 cyl is an interference type motor? These are types of things I'm looking to find out as well as other maintenance and performance antecdotes.
