well , lets see, it requires a Mitsubishi service manual (i recommend auto zone ,advance) cost 18.95. READ,READ,READ before you turn the first wrench.
it is not hard work,just lots of it. depending on the engine,2.4l,3.0. etc...
you basically have to take everthing off front of engine, thenCAREFULLY keep every pulley and tensioner in line while you swap the belt. Work is extensive,i just finished up 2.4l engine. interference engines have to be exact when you time them or you can bend valves,damage connecting rods and pistons. This is not your dad's Chevy 305 v8 where if you goofed and turned the engine over nothing happened,these engines it will happen and the damaged is extensive. So $ 358.00 at Mitsubishi is not so bad and while you are in there don't be cheap ... replace the water pump too.
What else can I help you with?

How do you know if your Mitsubishi Galant jumped time?
A Galant has timing belts, normally the belts break if they have not been serviced. As for as jumping time they belt may stretch causing it to run bad or not to run at all. Pull the cover off of the timing belt and check the timing using the timing marks. If they are off your car is out of time.

Remove the old water pump by unscrewing the bolts, clean the mounting surface, apply a new gasket or sealant, and install the new pump. Finally, reassemble the timing belt, timing cover, refill the coolant, and reconnect the battery.

How do you change timing belt in a 2000 ford escort?
You have to take the accessory belt (serpentine) off, then take the left motor mount off while supporting the bottom of the engine. Take the timing cover off and then release the tensioner on the belt to take it off. You line up the timing marks at the crankshaft and the camshaft, put the belt on. Tighten the tensioner, then rotate the crankshaft on the engine at least 2 full turns, then check the timing marks to see if they are still lined up.

How do you know if your timing belt goes out?
If you suspect your timing belt has broken or the teeth have been stripped off of it, the only way to know for sure is to take off you timing belt cover and have a look. Some vehicles had / have interference heads. These vehicles will destroy their own valves if you try to crank them without a timing belt on.
