Do this DIY at your own risk. Get your valve timing wrong, pistons will bend the valves, you could cost your self thousands of dollars in damage to your engine.
this DIY is aimed at the more confident exprerienced back yarder. not newbies.
Aim: Change Timing and Balance belt
Required:
- 10mm spanner
- 14mm spanner
- 12mm spanner
- 10,12,14,17,19 mm socket 17mm deep socket is good to have
- 1/2" drive breaker bar
- timing light
- big screw driver

Due to the complexity of doing a timing belt, I have made a video, if your doubtful, dont bother trying to change your timing belt your self. get a pro to do it.
if your confident, and are unsure on what needs to be done then watch this video and get some ideas.
the video is of a F22B type engine which has a balance belt.
DOHC and SOHC and non balance shaft motors are all the same concept, even quad cam, just harder to do.
as you will see in the video, you need to get access to the front of the engine if the engine is in the car, this means undoing and removing the altenator belt, aircon belt and power stearing belt.
undo the top front engine mount, suporting your engine with a Jack.
then follow the video.
BIG NOTE
dont get your valve timing wrong. look at your timing marks with your old belt on. make a good note of how it should be. Fit your new belts with the same markings.
do not force your engine to rotate, you could bend stuff. With the spark plugs out, your engine should rotate freely, no sudden compression fights.
after you have replaced the belt(s). and have put it all back together,
when your ready to start it. ( make sure you dont have a socket on crankshaft bolt.) start it up, make sure it sounds right.
turn it off.
fit the SCS connetor to bridge your ecu puting it in self diag mode ( where it tells you the fault codes ). engine light should come on the dash when you start the engine. allow the thermo fans to come on at least twice. then set your ignition timing as per the specs.
remove the SCS connector and road test.
during the road test make sure the engine has power and does not lack any power during acceleration.
also make sure it does not ping.
if its gutless and does not drive like it did before, you F@%ked UP. you will have to strip it all down and reset the valve timing.
thats prety much it
please let me know if you have any questions.
