on a scale of 1-10 how difficult is it to replace a water pump and aux drive belt on a focus 1.8 2003 petrol engine. I am not a novice, have some mechanical experience but have not worked on a newer ford. are any special tools required?

About 8, if you are methodical you should be ok. You will probably have to remove the cam belt. If you do you need a tool to hold the cams-the tool is basically a flat plate +/- 400 mm long and about 6mm thick which slots into the rear of the cams when engine is in the correct position and on tdc.
