Now I can't reassemble it.Its an Echo PAS 225VP. You're supposed to install it facing you but I installed it facing to the side. Now I can't remove the string housing so I can unscrew the shield. Any tips? Please educated answers only.
My only experience with a fire is with a garden hose. I just wanted to say: Good for you! And thank you! And to please be safe
This is not meant as an insult question, but to be clear, you are sure it is the timing belt and not the serpentine drive belt that failed. The serpentine belt is the one that drives the alternator, A/C, power steering pump etc. If it is the timing belt you will need to do what Gary said, fix the timing belt, and then run a compression test on the cylinders to see if you've bent some valves.
