    *** As Promised: Camshaft Install Video ***

    ***I watched the video again and found one contradiction. When installing the VANOS the text says counter clockwise while I say clockwise. The TEXT is wrong. You rotate initially clockwise before installing the VANOS.

    Here it is folks. It is a little under an hour and roughly 250 mbs. Hopefully I did everything right because I am somewhat sticking my neck out there.

    Oh and no making fun; this is my first "documentary".

    Right Click and Save (it is a .mov file, if there is enough interest I can do a WMV):

    Yep...

    WMV format is in the works and will be ready in the morning. Did it work for you?

    When I right click I don't see the save-as button. It's been like this for a long time already. Ever since I got Firefox.
    I'll try opening it with IE.

    “If the representatives of the people betray their constituents, there is then no resource left but in the exertion of that original right of self-defense which is paramount to all positive forms of government, and which against the usurpations of the national rulers may be exerted with infinitely better prospect of success than against those of the rulers of an individual State. In a single State, if the persons intrusted with supreme power become usurpers, the different parcels, subdivisions, or districts of which it consists, having no distinct government in each, can take no regular measures for defense. The citizens must rush tumultuously to arms, without concert, without system, without resource; except in their courage and despair.” – Alexander Hamilton, Federalist No. 28
