Good afternoon everyone.
I have an update on the car repair situation.
I was FINALLY able to take the crankshaft pulley off today, so now I can access the full timing belt mechanism.
This means that tomorrow I can work on replacing the water pump, then on Tuesday when the rest of the timing belt kit comes, I can work on the rest of it and probably be done by Wednesday or Thursday.
I actually talked to my friend who is a mechanic today. He said there may be more hope for this car than other cars who had lost timing belts. The reason for this was when the car broke down I was going 10 to 15 mph. School zone.
Because of this, he suspects that it’s more hopeful that there is no significant engine damage.
We will see when I put it back together.

I grilled a t bone though, no habaneros were harmed!
