Nice that it is a non interference engine because the timing belt had broken.
The next weekend we replaced the timing belt on his wife's KIA. Even without a stubborn bolt, that was much more difficult.
Edit: I think his is a 2.5L. I know it has 2 spark plugs per cylinder. Big pain changing the plug that's buried under the intake manifold.

I helped a friend change a timing belt on a ranger 4 cyl. We could not get the crank bolt off. The clutch would slip even doing everything we could to help keep the crank from turning. Not even after removing enough to use an impact wrench. We had to put a breaker bar on the bolt and use the starter (with a freshly charged batter) and gave it a 6" running start to hit the frame to break that bolt loose. After that, not a bad job.
