Mandatory for 1.6 Ecoboost.

I am a self employed auto mechanic and had a 2013 Fusion with a 1.6 engine with a coolant leak Fluid coming from the water pump came. A quick look at the service book noted the removal of the toothed belt and the 4 special tools required, which led me here. The only 4 you will need are the camshaft gear lock, crankshaft locking pin, flywheel lock and crank pulley alignment tool. They all worked as expected. A NOTICE. The camshaft sprocket locking tool will NOT lock the camshaft sprockets while the timing belt is still attached. The service manual states that the sprockets must be turned slightly clockwise to lock the tool. Be sure to turn the sprockets to TDC when reinstalling the new belt.
