    Timing belt kit recommendations?

    I'm looking for a good compromise of price without losing too much quality and wanted to find some recommendations. 2.2l on a '90.

    Ordering these parts in addition:
    Distributor Cap
    PCV Valve
    Cylinder Head Gasket Set (holy gaskets! stem seals and all)
    distributor rotor
    radiator
    upper and lower radiator hoses
    spark plugs
    spark plug wires
    Currently: 1996 Dodge Caravan (DD), 1990 Honda Accord LX
    Currently pulling the head to fix borked valve(s). Converted to external ign. coil.
    Previously: 1991 Dodge Dakota, 1995 Ford Contour GL, 1992 Mazda Protege DX

        if your wantting to save money delete the balnace shaft belt but deff get OEM cam crank and balance shaft seals and get the balance shaft seal retainer as well.
        water pump oem
        also a good time to check valve adjustments.
        quality work and parts dont come cheap.

        is the motor out of the car? if it is i would go ahead and do rear main seal clutch and oem thorw out bearing as well, if its not out of the car then i would just stick with the timing belt...

        heres a cheap seggestion. when your putting it back, cut out a hole in the lower timing cover so you can slide it over the pulley so you dont have to take the pulley off to get the cover off... i would not leave the cover completely off on the bottom like some people do just because the cv axle inner boot. when it rips it throws axle grease all over the cover.. better for the cover to get it than the timing belt. "cars with intermidite shafts"

        if your taking the head off to re do the head gasket then i would probally look into redoing the pistion rings and possibly new rod main and thrust bearings in the bottom end while you got it all apart
