how hard it to change the timeing belt?? in an eg d15b1

NiiS

It's cakewalk, my friend. Just make sure to line everything up to spec, that is the most important part along with tensioning the belt itself...
good luck

yeah, changing the timing belt is a hard job to do.....if you let it be. I will say this; the job is not for everyone to attempt but for someone who is halfway mechanically inclined, can read a Helms (or an equivalent manual), and will not try to rush or take shortcuts can definitely do the job. Now time wise you are looking at anywhere between 2-6 hours depending on whether or not you get hung up in certain areas. A little piece of advice for you, make sure you have a tool to help you hold the crankshaft pulley while you try to remove the bolt. That thing is cinched down to 170 lb.ft. of torque and is a little bastard to take off sometimes. Hope everything goes smoothly for you!
