Default Timing belt swap

I need to change out my timing belt very soon. I tried it once before but I didn't have the proper tool to take the crank pulleys off of the crank.

How can I get this godamn bolt off? I don't have the tool they cite in the Helms manual and I don't have a torque wrench. Does anyone know where I can rent or buy this tool cheaply? Or just how to take that bolt off. Thanks

I have change this belt in other cars besides my teg but I always had a tensioner that I just had to release. Do these cars not have this? If not then I would go with a socket and long pole or a breaker bar.

they have a tensioner but in order to get to it i think you have to take off a cover which only gets taken off after you've removed the crank pulley. You have to take off basically all the belts in the teg to remove the timing belt and put a new one on. Very big pita
