My daughter owns a 2000 Eclipse GS with the 2.4L L-4 and auto. It's coming up on 60,000 miles and I'm planning on changing the timing belt. Looking for any info I can get on what else should generally be replaced while it's apart. Pulleys, tensioners, water pump? Also, I've read that a special tool is needed for tensioning the new belt. Is this a tool that actually sets the tension correctly, or just a tool to provide leverage to get to the proper tension? Any tips greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
Jim M
