    If your good with your hands, get a haynes manual and give it a go. It's not that difficult once you take your time and double check everything you do.

    Also make sure to turn over the engine by hand a few times and make sure all the timing marks line up. This is usually part of the proceedure anyway...

    best of luck with it! I'm afraid i don't have any advice for you, but like you I love nothing better than to get stuck into any job on my own van, and it'll save you a sh*t load of money! Let us know how you get on with it if you do decide to go at it. gluck!
