You will need it to loosen the Tensioner to remove the old belt.....

There's a tool for it, or you can use a large socket wrench on the hub nut of the tensioner. Pull against the tensioner spring with one hand and slip the belt over a pulley. Observe routing, should be on a decal in the engine compartment, to replace.
