Is timing a hard thing to do?
I'm acquiring a white 91 Integra 4dr LS Autopimptastic for free and it just needs a distributor. Is it tough to do the timing on it? I can get my hands on a timing light and just wanted to know how much work will be involved. This is a car where I pulled the distributor from over 6months ago for the 93teg I had so I know everything is fine other than that.

Yes,.. if you have to jack up the car, then thats labor for me
Lets see if you can sum it up in as few words as possible.
