I have a 1990 740 wagon B230F engine no turbo.
California emissions with EGR valve.

I think I have read everything about changing the timing belt and the seals associated with it. There is so much info that I need to clarify/confirm a couple of things. Here is the summary of my plans based on the advice given on the various FAQ's and posts. The camshaft seal leak is really bad, so I want to get stuff ordered today. I will be cleaning out the Flame trap system to eliminate the pressure on the seals before I replace them.

1. I should buy the crank holder tool 9995284-8 and be done with it.
Where is the cheapest and fastest source for this tool?

2. I will also need a 24mm 1/2" drive 6-point socket and a suitable breaker bar, and torque wrench, etc.

3. According to the folks at FCP-Groton, the Elring seals they carry for crank, camshaft, and intermediate shaft are identical to Volvo seals. They are the latest viton type, etc. (but they are $3 instead of $22 from the Volvo dealer).

4. The camshaft seal tool is 9995025 -- does anyone rent this?
I can make one from appropriate sized tubes and plumbing, but great care will have to be exercised to prevent lip rollover.

5. I didn't find the number of the Volvo installation tool for the crank seal.
Same questions as #4.

6. I will need a 3 mm pin to hold back the tensioner during installation

7. do I need a special holder tool to properly remove/torque the camshaft and intermediate shaft nuts? (like Item 1 above)

Thanks.
