How dangerous is that ?
Clever, but one wrong move and you could have a screwdriver straight through the middle of your head.

I must admit I fitted a PAS toothed belt on a fiat 132 with no tools at all, in a halfords car park once. Just placed it as far on as it would go without slackening any adjuster bolts, then cranked the engine over. The belt jumped on, no problem.
