My running well car with 166,000 miles needed the timeing belt changed due to I just bought it 4 months ago. SO I and my mechanic friend decided to change it and set the timing according to Chiltons repair manual. After turning it over 6 or 7 times (maybe more)..it won't start. We ended up taking it to a Acura dealer who showed us that our timing set by Chilton's manual was wrong. We compared books; Chilton's vs Acura's shop manual..and shure enough..IT WAS!!!

The dealer will adj the timing right and try and start it. They say we might have bent some values. SO, should I keep my fringers crossed and hope for the best since it never stopped on the road at a high speeds..and the only real turning of the engine was from the atempts to start the car?

Should I get some type of recourse from CHilton since thier manual was Wrong, therefore causing the problem or maybe a bigger problem!!!

help!!!!
