:?: :?: :?: :?: :?: , what special tools :?: :?: :?: :?: :?:
I've done mine twice so far and haven't brought any special tools.

ps: if your just changing the belt, for the sake of it and pulleys are ok, you don't have to worry about upsetting the timing. cut the belt in half (down the middle), slide on the new one and then cut off the old half and finish off pushing on the new one.... job's a gooden :idea:
