Replacing timing belt on 84 325e, have a few questions.
Going to dive right in, I have limited mechanical experience however I have a mechanic friend to help me so I'm diving into the timing belt replacement.
I was wondering what tools would be required? I will review the guides and put together a list as best I can, but any further assistance from here is greatly appreciated.
I was also wondering besides camshaft seal, tensioner pulley, what other parts will I want to buy beforehand to make sure we don't run into any potential problems?
Any other tips and information regarding this job on this car is greatly appreciated. I'm going to try to get together $200 for parts and tools to do this job, we have access to a fair amount of tools but I definitely want to make sure we have every tool necessary to do this job, this car is my daily driver after all.

I also forgot to mention I have 2 Bentley manuals for this car, trying to be as prepared as possible .
