Mines on loan at Cape Cod. Timing belt time? You need to crank pin and the cam adjuster tool too.

I ordered Ultimate Plus Timing Belt Kit from ECS. I was told kit included everything I'll need. Is that accurate?

No. IIRC, not enough cam seals, no cam adjuster seals, no cam plugs, no valve cover gaskets. The kit has enough for the basic timing belt service, but not enough to do all the seals.

I dont need to replace ALL the seals. Many of them have been replaced recently besides the cam seals, the cam adjuster seals. I meant do I need any special tools.
