special tool #5284 for 240

What year is your Volvo? They changed the crankshaft pulley in 1985. The tool will make the timing belt change easier, you may also investigate "The Rope Trick" I never used it but many swear by it.
Take your time and allow more than you think it will take. Consider changing the tensioner and water pump while you are there.

If you do purchase that tool take my advice from learning the hard way and purchase the tool from FCP Groton.
Here is a link to the thread about the issues I had with my Crank Pully Holder Tool. https://volvoforums.com/forum/volvo-240-740-940-12/crank-pully-holder-46753/
Also as darkdelta suggested I would go ahead and replace the tensioner, water pump, crank seal, cam seal, and intermediate seal since you will be in there.
