After having done a few, I'd say sometimes it's easy, sometimes not. Just getting the output shaft to line up properly.
Once I was struggling for about 45mins, shouting and swearing at the bloody thing, arms were killing me due to all the holding and pushing.
Went in, sat down and had a cuppa, came back out and it went on first try.

We once had a lad come down the garage telling us his mondeo diesel wouldnt start & he couldnt understand why as he had a spark and fuel
