Hello,
Here are the instructions on how to replace the timing belt and the camshaft and crankshaft seals if needed, it also shows how to reset the timing belt tensioner. I would use an electric impact gun to loosen and tighten the harmonic balancer retention bolt. You may need to remove the radiator before you begin. Check out the images (below). Please let us know if you need anything else to get the problem fixed.
