You won't drain much, Jim. just put some tape or a rubber glove on it and you will be fine Or, if you don't want to mess with break fluid at all (except for a few drops) you do it the way I suggested (no fluid can escape the master cylinder when the break pedal is in 3/4 position).... See this illu...

Tips from my experience recently: Mark the hell out of the hub and the cam cover, but you're going to have to check it with the belt anyway. When you're checking to see if you've got the angle set right, torque the bolt down before strapping the belt on. If you let the hub snap home without that bol...

The mileage was 154k miles when the symptoms appeared. The contacts were tarnished and it did improve with cleaning, but I should have updated my post though. I pulled the ECC and found 2 capacitors on the board had leaked. I needed the air and defrost at the time, and couldn't find replacement caps...

Ah. You have to rotate the cam past the marks by 90 degrees then come back to the marks with VVT. I’ll point you to the thread. My 2 cents....
