How hard is it to change a timing belt? I just bought a 1992 Acura Integra GSR VTEC with 220,00 miles. I dont have a lot of money to pay to have it changed.. I am pretty handy with cars, but just want to know before I attempt anything outta my league.. If I follow the haynes manual, do you think I can do it myself?

 

search for t-belt.

you will need, a breaker bar, a pack of smokes, and air tools.

its do able with the right tools. its about a 7/10 difficulty level.

 

dont forget some beer, your gonna need it if its your first time.
