    Timing belt mishaps.

    Hmm, so I was doing the whole v-belts and t-belt waterpump, other maintenance stuff when I broke the bowl looking plastic bit behind the rotor. It looks like a cereal bowl with a hole and it goes right behind the rotor. Yes I took off the rotor before removing it, but I was working in some tight quarters and it fell somehow ended up under my foot. So I need a new one and the part number on it didn't do anything for me on BMA or realoem. Noobish, but it was completely random. Soo, should I try to look for one or hit the yards and pray for one? Oh the number is 1230500166. Thanks alot guys.

    Also, you are a cock with tacky taste.

    Do yourself a favor and buy a new one along with the cap and rotor.

    Don't use the part number, just go to bma and put in your year make and model and look it up that way.

    The reason I say just buy a new one is because you're in there anyway and it would be worth while to get it all done at once.

        I have one I don't need - I bought it new. I don't think they are that expensive though.

          Hmm, remember where you got it from? Maybe a stealership. I don't think we have one up here in the high desert. Oh well, mind shipping the extra to me? :D

              I probably ordered it from BMA. I can send it to you for $5, but I still need to remove it from my car.
