This is by far the best vid on this on YouTube. Good quality video and good narration. I can’t figure out where the observation window on the auto trans is though.

MrChalac says:

My timing belt had a bunch of the grooves ripped off. I cant find the correct timing for the crankshaft, there aren't any marks but the camshaft is aligned. I heard there is a little window on the opposite side of the car from the crankshaft that you can tell when it is in the correct placement but i cannot find the marker on the window. My crankshaft only moves about 300 degrees and then stops. Is my engine broke?

I have learnt lots of stuff from your videos. You perfecally bridge the gap between confusing and unnecessary factory procedures to just getting it done properly.
Also like your flying videos.
