What does it involve? Pulling-down your muffler, removing the transaxle, removing the clutch, removing the flywheel, then drain the oil:
Putting your motor at TDC, locking the crank, locking the cams (special tool), pulling the chain tensioners, then ripping-out the IMS Bearing using this tool.
So the IMS looks like this.
Then installing the new bearing using this tool and a hammer.
Then putting things back together, and put new oil in the motor!
This is just a short general description but will give you an idea of what it's about
There are a few good write-ups on this task that you need to fully understand if you do it yourself.
