yes.

It is driven off the timing belt so you have to pull it off and you might as well replace it while your in there. Even to get it off without replaceing the belt you need to pull the crank damper, you need a 3 jaw puller. You have to pull the damper to pull the cover to get at the stuff in there. All data calls for 3.8 hours, the first time I did one it took me twice that long, now after doing a few I think I can get that time.
