Default timeing belt

Hi guys,

my car is a 94 Accord, stock, stick

I need to replace my timeing belt, and was considering doing it myself. How hard is it to do? is there a DIY anywhere to help? What is the best repair manual, with the best instructions? Will i need a timeing light (im thinking i will, not sure though)? Are there any other special tools that help the job? If someone could give me a once over on what is involved, it would be much appreciated!

Thanx guys (and gals)

Grab a HAYNES manual and get to know your car. It'll love you for it

Find Haynes or Chilton at autoparts stores. But the best book is published by Helm. Get it at www.helminc.com for about $70.

Lining up the camshaft & balancer shaft timing is something that you want good pictures so you understand the markings on those sprockets.

Worst thing about timing belt is probably the bolt on the crankshaft pulley. That's on real tight. If you don't have air tools, you need something to hold the crank from turning, & a big pipe on your breaker bar.
