If you can find someone close to you who you can borrow the tools from, that would be great (you don't say exactly where you are located, there are many Marlboros), that would be ideal, but if not, you will need to purchase two tool sets.

The camshaft/tensioner/crank positioning alignment set is available from several online sources for $50 or less. Here is just one example.
Amazon Amazon

And the more expensive crank holding and harmonic balancer puller set is available here, at a pretty decent price.
Amazon Amazon

You can purchase all that is needed for less than $200.00

When I did the tensioners on my R years ago, I recall that the R required a different pully puller. I think the pully and damper were one piece - different from NA.

I wonder if that tool on Amazon will do both.
