Deffinatly wouldnt say its easy but its not crazy hard either. Just make sure you know what TDC is and how to find it.

and yes I am pushing it wayyyyyyyyyy to much.

I work on cars all day though so on my day off i hate to do reapirs, especially with the Lancer sitten right there wanting to be driven, abused, tuned, washed, and modded some more so we can start all over again..

So really you're secretly hoping your belt break and it ruins your Civi so you can get a new one to play with...

If the water pump goes bad does the timing belt go bad? My current car is a Dodge Neon, so I am scared as hell about buying a new car that has an interference engine.. Are these cars really as reliblae as everyone says they are?
Wait, let me get this straight: you own a Neon and you're scared of buying a Honda because you don't know how reliable they are??? That's a new one...

IMO a Neon is only a step above a Lada or a Yugo. A Honda is one of the top most reliable cars on the market.
