just wondering how hard it is for a decently mechanically inclined person to change out spark plugs/wires and install new struts/shocks and springs on a 1990 accord. wanted to get an idea before I buy a repair manual--also which repair manual is best?

last but not least--thinking of getting my car repainted and wondering how hard it is to remove the headlights, tailights, and suggestions for other things to remove which are not too complicated.

I thought about doing the timing belt/water pump myself, but after looking at the link/thread--I think my honda mechanic will get that job!

thank you very much in advance and happy holidays!!!
