Has anyone changed their own timing belt? Where did you get your instructions and how difficult was it?

Thanks in advance!

If you want to do it yourself, buy a Chilton's Manuel. It breaks it down step by step. Just be ready to set the timing again.

I would suggest you to buy a honda service manual. It definitely worth it if you would like to do something like replacing the timing belt. It's a real job.

BTW, The engine is a VTEC 2.3, Automatic.

I just got done putting a ZZ-4 in my Corvette, Alone. I am mechanically inclined, but never done any work on the Honda before. The factory manual makes sense. Are you working off the hard copy or did you buy a CD? I see there are CDs on Ebay for about $30 with shipping. Is this a good way to go? How much time am I looking at?

timing belt alone is 3.7 by the book. but its pretty simple. remove all drive belts; move p/s pump out the way; support engine underneath and remove left engine mount; remove timing cover after turning it to top dead center; loosen tension & remove belt; when installing....you must lock the rear balance shaft in place w/ a bolt through the back of the block after aligning all marks....which your manual should explain; reverse order for installation. while your already in there...i'de recommend changing the water pump and front seals.
