Question Re; timing belt

Are their any so called "SPECIAL" tools needed for belt replacement?Or is it pretty much metric wrenchs/sockets?I dont want to get it apart,and not be able to continue,due to lack of proper tools.

I believe not. The last time I replaced the T belt on the transverse mounted engine (in line 4) I swore I would not do it again. I have kept my promise.

The problem is with access and you need small hands.
