I'm trying to determine if I need any special tools to replace the timing belt on my 7afe.
I did a little digging and found the pdf's for the tech manual & they show a special tool when you remove the belt. Is it really needed? EDIT: It's called "SST" & it is pictured for the crankshaft pulley removal. Is this just a pulley puller? END EDIT Also, I'm assuming I need to get a new belt & idler pulley, a new valve cover gasket, and a new water pump/gasket. Did I miss anything? I'm assuming Toyota parts are the way to go, right? Sorry for all the questions, but I'm new to Celicas. Thanks! This post has been edited by Brightside: Mar 20, 2008 - 9:30 AM |

For the pulley tool, a standard Harmonic Balancer Puller is all you need, along with a good high-torque impact wrench to remove the bolt that holds it on.
