13mm, 15mm, 10mm 3/8drive sockets, a dead blow rubber mallet for getting accessory bracket off. A 3/4" Allen wrench. Need just a regular Allen wrench. The socket type will not clear water pump. A mirror on a stick and the skill to use the snap ring pliers in the mirror. A good pick and hook set for when you get fed up trying to get snap ring out in the mirror. A new snap ring and oring.
In my case a 10mm1.5 helicoil set for the mounting bolt that broke off when trying to remove. 1/2" breaker bar for removing belts. As to answer the question as to why to change it, mine had come apart and came out in 3 pieces. Put new stat in high oil temp problem solved.

Thanks for the reply I am also attempting to do a damper so I can pin the motor and check my cam timing
Fun fun
