if it's really rooted then the engine wont run at all. it's not a hard job but it's not much fun either. pull the harmonic balancer off and there it is.

yeah mine wouldnt start cos the wires had been severed and the sensor wasnt functioning

depends how nimble you are with your arms

a lot of people will tell you you have to remove the thermos, then the harmonic balancer to get to it

you dont need to remove the balancer, it just has 2 small bolts that go in to the timing cover then it slides out from the top. You will need to remove the wire shroud and its easier to do that with the belt adjuster gone. Have fun with it, not hard just time consuming
