That is a nice online guide, but much to much work!!! The crank sprocket does not need to come off to remove/install the timing belt. There is 'just' enough room to slide the belt out once the silly cover is off. The new belt goes on easier.

No need to remove the fan either.

The cam sprockets stay with the cam.

If anything looks rusty, dab it with PBBlaster.

A 3/4 crows foot works to release the serpentine tensioner. Do not forget to pin it.

Do not mess with the engine mounts! You are working on the other end.

I gave up reading at the cam gear removal section.
