Don't let this happen to u

Yup, that happened to my 1G & I landed into that lucky 50%. All valves were fine. I was fed a story to. "yea, changed the timing belt!" Welp, I bought the car with 64k miles on it so I figured it was the truth. At 73k miles, I looked throught the paperwork, and it was *very* complete, and did not include a reciept for a timing belt job. I made plans to get it done and then BAM! I'm on my way into work one day and mu luck ran short.

I swear it's karma nipping you in the ass with this kind of stuff.

That is what happened to the Laser I just bought. B belt went then t belt went. Dealer covererd it for the previous owner when the car had ~60k on it. New 6-bolt short block and new head!
