Leak leading to overheating is big risk. Broken bolts due to overtorquing (small bolts require < 10 ft - lbs).
Primary reason is that failure is not catastrophic (such as timing belt).
good luck

agreed, first timers or inexperienced mechanics will mess up things...however; skilled mechanics can replace things without breaking stuff. lol
a lot of times, people(unskilled mechanics) will break things and not tell you, until next time you go to change it out and find they absolutely FUBAR'd it and took a backyard approach to fix it; ie; not replacing it with a new part. either to save money, or didnt want to tell you, the customer.
