If you're working with a Stnaza older than 1990 (CA20E engine)...it's not that tough of a job...you'll have to move some EGR and PCV stuff out of the way, but it's just screwdriver type stuff. Mark the distributor mount like Kurt said so you know what position to bolt it back into...however, you wont need to note the position of the rotor...it only goes on one way (mine did atleast). The notch on the cam is off-center. ANyway, if you screw it up, it probably wont start, so there's a clue. Just remember which spark plugs go where on the cap. Expect about 3 hours if you've never done it before and you dont have a manual.
