If my more entertaining version of this video isn't blow by blow enough for you, I did find this picture and text version helpful on a few points I wasn't sure how to proceed. If you're actually going to do this job, this may help, but I feel direction and wisdom on how to get this circus of parts to line up for my video is helpful in a different way:

Half the mess I cleaned up under the engine was from my timing chain tensioner. Link to the video for installation:

Chevy Prizms in most mechanical ways are the same from 1998 to 2002 except a few engine parts (the 1ZZ-FE VVT-i ran 2000 and later even up to 2008 in the Pontiac Vibe and Toyota Matrix), and they are in common with the Toyota Corolla for these years for most things, except some interior and exterior trim, most of which is interchangeable, but a few things aren't without customization.

These longer videos are brutal to edit! You'll have to forgive a few second scene where I repeat myself before and after adding more light to reshoot the scene, lol. You get the nitpicking kudos reward if you can find the scene! lol :)

Motor mounts front and back removal part 1
I keep calling these motor mounts what they're normally called, and in fact these are the right words to find them for this car when you buy them; however, there is only 1 true motor mount on a Chevy Prizm. It's the only one easily seen without taking the car or part or having an intake short ram installed. It's on the passenger side top area next to the engine. The rest are actually transmission mounts. Chevy Prizms in most mechanical ways are the same from 1998 to 2002 except a few engine parts, and they are in common with the Toyota Corolla for these years for most things, except some interior and exterior trim, most of which is interchangeable, but a few things aren't without customization.

Nissan Frontier How to Change Belts and a Coolant Leak Fix
What's so hard about a belt you might ask? Assuming you're good at a serpentine belt and some experience I get what you mean, but this Nissan Frontier has some hiding bolts that gets 3 different belts adjusted into place. Here's my thorough and complete teaching of a how to on belts for a 2004 or generation 1 Nissan Frontier (Nissan Pathfinders even back to like 98 have very similar tech). I've worked on a lot of Nissans, and even though they're different, many of them use similar designs to make their belt tensions manually adjusted (you'll see similar on even their cars). It takes more experience or more trial and error to get right, but with this and my next video about proper tensioning you'll be in good shape.
