can I replace timing belt myself? 850

posted by  someone claiming to be Richontheroad on  Wed Apr 24 04:24 CST 2002 [RELATED]

My 95 855 has a sticker that says the timing belt should be replaced at 70 K. I'm currently at 108K and dont have much power. So I figure the belt is probably stretched out pretty good. I'm trying to see if its worth sending it in or doing it myself.

I've done timing belts in other cars but was wondering if anyone has done one themselves, how long it took or can recommend instructions or what repair manuals you would recommend. (I hate Hayes manuals I had one for a Subaru and it use to always say. "a special tool is needed bring it to the shop"
