Advice:

1. Take your time tensioning the belt and making sure the marks are perrrfecto. I know alot of times it's the home stretch and you wanna just finish but it's important (as i'm sure you know).

2. it's a 19mm bolt, don't use a standard socket (i've seen this before, strip that CS bolt and you're done).

3. Make sure you get a good feel at what the Timing belt slack feels like. So when you put it on, you'll have a feel for how tight / loose it should be. Some guys have put it on too loose and it's skipped teeths.

4. Don't do any work until you get that Crank pulley off, you may need to drive it to a shop and have them hit it w/ their impact gun. May the Honda gods be with you upon your glorious battle Vs the Cs bolt. (I bought an oem pulley holder, Best $40 ever if you work on hondas).

5. My last advice is, if your forcing somthing... it's probably not right.
