Take all the bolts out of the pan, remove the fan, rad hoses, and brackets for the alternator and power steering, remove the bolts from the timing cover (don't pry yet), remove the valve cover, remove the crankshaft pulley, remove the distributor and drive gear from the front of the camshaft, remove the one hidden bolt in the puddle of oil under the cam gear, remove the timing cover.
The remove the guides, gears, tensioner and chain/sprockets. replace.
The haynes or chilton manuals spell it out quite well and will help limit the disassembly process. There are coolant tubes from the rear of the engine that fasten to the back of the timing cover that need to be removed as well.
It took me 10 hours on the weekend and this is the third one I've done. It's a bitch. I had to remove the engine mounts to raise the engine high enough to get the pan out.
The first one we ever did took us abut 8 hours and we used the Chilton. make sure if you do not remove the pan when you try to slip the TC cover back on you do not mess up the head gasket or that will be your next job.

If you're not going to pull the pan, be liberal with the sealant and make sure you clean the surfaces real good. The first time I did this job I didn't pull the pan until a month later when it started to leak.
