Atl: Need help will pay

[blizake500]

I was wondering anybody in the Atlanta Area wants to help me replace my timing belt on my 1990 325i. I will pay you and feed you. 4045803951 Blake

You should do it yourself. Plenty of great write ups online and you may learn a thing or two. It is a relatively straight forward job.

Yeah its not to challenging. It was my second second attempt working on a car and I had no real problems.

I did it myself in 2015 for the first time. It's pretty straight forward. All the timing is marked, just buy a Bentley / print something off online and do it. It's fun. More $$$ in your pocket for parts elsewhere if the car needs attention.

I think I could do it. But for the first time I would rather have a second hand. I have read too many horror stories on this form about snapping timing belt right after a replacement.

Just do it. I have a parts car with a good (so I've been told) M20B25 in it. If you snap your timing belt after changing it, I will give you that motor.

If you follow the directions exactly, you can't mess it up.
