I had to remove the radiator, degas the A/C just so i could undo the crank pulley bolt with my airgun as it was tight. You could possibly do it if you could lock up the engine but i'd rather make sure i didn't slip and damage the radiator.
I reckon 4-5hrs is near to the mark for a proper job.
Just as note which i couldn't believe but Mitsubishi don't actually change all the rollers when doing timing belts. When i asked for a price of all the bits required he asked me what i meant.
I said well all the bits your workshop change when doing belts, his reply was just the belt.
I used an ADL kit in the end IIRC. must say though that the pulley's removed where still in excellent order not your usual cheap plastic rubbish.
Its actually a nice belt to change once all the covers are stripped out.
