The timing belt and camshaft pulley has to come off so it is not an easy job. The labor time should be about 3 hours.

Some work requires more than nerves. You need the correct tools and equipments. Honda/Acura engines requires special tools for holding the crankpulley or a high torqued impact wrench. any mistake with the timing belt installation can mean disaster. This job is NOT for the normal DIY. You need to be an experienced one.
