I did a little bartering and had my Ebay timing belt and water pump installed by a mechanic that works in Rockwall. So far, so good. He says he has done quite a few TB's on Miatas. The mechanic also replaced 3 out of 9 hoses, cam seals, crank bolt, idler pulley, CAS o-ring, valve cover gasket, plugs and wires. I need to replace the other 6 hoses, work on my brakes, change tranny and diff fluids. He said my engine was pretty tight for 231,000 miles, so hopefully I will get a few more years out of it.
