Don't have the place to work on it, and more important, don't feel I have the ability. And there are issues like recharging the AC. Not to mention I don't want to struggle with manhandling an engine out and in. I will gladly do basic tasks - brakes, window motors for example, and have saved significant $ by this over the years - but this to me is more than a basic task. As for a "weekend," one shop quoted 20-24 hours, and they've done this before
