You'll have three hours plus. Nothing is easy to access. You have to diconnect the air intake to the throttle body to tip the throttle body up. The starter is under the throttle body. My air intake didn't want to move.

It is definitely a DIY, but it ain't easy. I used towels to protect the paint while was I was leaning over the car. It is a knuckel buster projects.

I had AutoZone test it once it was out... Klunk, then spinnn

Good luck
