Default Another timing belt question - '91 vs. '98

I might be looking at a timing belt on a '91 Accord LX coupe 4-cyl.

I've done timing belts before, & I've got a Helm book for our '98 Accord, but I'm reluctant to buy that book for someone else's car. Is there enough difference between those F-series engines ('91 vs. '98) to make it necessary to get the book? Balancer belt timing marks or any other issues?

Want a free manual? The one for that car should be a free download at this link: Let me know if it doesn't work

They're pretty much the same.

like Chio says ,, it is mostly alike,,,,,,the timing marks on the 91 are located undrr the rubber plug, below the top rad hose between engine and tranny ,, starting in 94 the timing marks are on the crank pulley and lower t-belt cover

piece of cake ...

Thanks guys, I appreciate it. Now it looks like she isn't going to buy that car anyway so it was a false alarm.
