Is there a special timing belt tensioner tool when changing the timing belt on a 1998 3.0 Acura CL?

I'm having a friend change my timing belt. He's a seasoned mechanic, but does not typically work on Acuras. He mentioned to me today that he thinks there is a special tool needed - something to do with the tensioner.

My question is, is


i own a repair shop,and if you,ll look at it you can probably use a make shift tool for this job,i made one that works on Subaru,s and other makes also ,but look at what you need and you might can use something else,also advance auto parts can order you
