Technical Cam belt help

[kung fu mark]

Hey was just wondering if anyone could give me any advice on how to fit my cambelt on, ive got a full kit as the tension wheel had gone which caused it to come off in the first place. do i need any special tools? and how long roughly would it take to do if fitting it myself and would it be worth getting a haynes manual?

Many thanks

Mark

Was just wondering what size sockets and spanners will i need? and will i need anything else?

Basically 10 and 13 mm sockets is all that you need.
