Is there any way that you could re-write that so that it's able to be interpreted by your fellow English speaking NICOnaut? Thanks!

of course a ca18det at 12psi is gonna make more power than one at 6. i would only push it to about 10 until its got some supporting stuff on it.

as for your question, YES!! there should be no reason why the old timing belt is still on there. change all that crap. timing belt, water pump, all belts, any related gaskets, set timing, etc.

i was under the impression that was just universally known.

p.s. - that grammar was a little rough, even for me.

Well, Whitey isn't going to hold you down on here... But please, for those of us who read and write proper English, do us the favor of at least trying to write legibly.
