First, you're going to need to take off the LF wheel and plastic cover in the wheel well. Next, take off the bolts on the valve cover, remove the Power Steering pump & remove v-belt. Move the pump out of the way, and and release the tension on the a/c (if equipped) and remove the belt. Loosen the bolts on the alternator to relieve the tension, and remove that belt as well. Now, you can start on the motor mounts on this side. There's one on top, and one on the bottom you can reach with a long extention. Make sure you have the motor supported with a floor jack and small block of wood!!! Then you can remove the motor mount bolts, and then the motor mount. With the motor mount out of the way, you can lower the motor a little to take out the bolt holding on the harmonic balancer - remove it. Then, remove the harmonic balancer with a pulley (or harmonic balancer) puller (you can borrow this from any autozone or advanced auto parts store). Now, you can remove the bolts holding the plastic shield over the timing belt, and remove it (it will be a two-piece). Remove the spring attached to the tensioner pulley and remove the belt. Suggestion: while you're in there, you might as well replace the water pump to save yourself from future headaches. Before you install the new timing belt, make sure the arrows on the cams are both pointing up, and the crank is where #1 cylinder is a TDC. And, well, with the new timing belt installed (i hate to sound like mitchell's with this bit of information but...), installation is exact reverse of removal. There ya have it. Hope that helps, and good luck!!
