Im mechanically inclined, but thought that I would ask first before doing it. I got the timing belt, tensioner, and water pump for my tl. Is there a DIY page or is there something I need to know before tackling it?

 

Sorta. Look for southerns timing belt thread.

 

iirc the thread is in gen3 and titled: 105k service completed

This is a pain job if you have never done a FWD water pump timig belt job
not much room to work- and takes a while to do
Adjust the valves while you are in there!!
If unsure after reading DIY - consult a few shops for price on labor

 

Have you replaced any timing belts before? Have you done mods of sorts?

 

Yes, I have changed the timing belt in my older 1993 integra. Im a marine mechanic though, I mostly work on I/O's ( 305's, 350's, 454's.......) Mercruiser's. But I have done all the mods on my TL myself, I/H/E, gutted cat, changed ALL motor mounts, ignition switch.............I have a shop with all the tools needed so im going to look for that thread first then go for it........thanks.

 

well if u can do the motor mounts u can do the timing belt... imo when i did mine, it was a pain in the ass...got the 120k service done at a local shop

 

Here is the link for timing belt from southern:

if you can do it on the teg, you can do it on this. Have fun. Buy the crank pully tool, or you will be pissed, and have to go buy it once you fail to get the bolt loose.
