^^ what he said. I have a 90 civic, and changing the timing belt wouldn't have caused a problem if it weren't for that damn crank pulley. plus I lost a tensioner in that weird housing thingy, i dont what happened. I ended up taking it to my mechanic, who found the cause of the problem wasnt the timing anyway.

but yeah, unless you have 1) a lot of tools(including air tools) 2) a couple days available for car downtime 3) a knowledgable friend to help, I'd suggest letting a pro do it. If you can, ask to watch so you can learn the process. just stay out of the way and dont bother them.
