I performed the service at a relaxed pace over 2 days
at about 8-10 hrs total

You will need to put the idler pully in the freezer
over night to ease installation.
I also did not perform the main front seal replacement
on the account of not fixing something that wan't
broke so add that time and time to drain and replace
oil.

Note: use and impact driver if you can to loosen the
cam bolt, otherwise you might bend the cam cover post
by using it as a fulcrum for a large flat headed
screwdriver to hold cam still.  And just thinking that
having the 2084 locking tool is enough is bad. You
might snap your old belt and bend a rod or two$$.
My bolt was on there damn tight.

Also, do yourself a favor and replace the water pump
and seal, because this is the exact same proceedure
you have to perform when it goes!

I've got a question for you all.
Do any of know what the book (if any) says the labor
time is for the
replacement of the timing belt, water pump, seal and
idler is to be? Or even
personal experiences. Huw, you are exempt! I've seen
the pictures of that
car with the front already cut out-just kidding
TIA
