You have a timing chain not a timing belt.
there is a belt tensioner near the alternator.
Loosen the timing belt tensioner so the belt will have some slack before removing it from a 1985 Honda Civic. Remove the old belt. Install the new belt and make sure the engine is TDC.
Discusss this with the Honda dealer in your area for the type of driving that you do.
the water pump is under the timing cover, if you replace the water pump, it is also a good time to change out the timing belt... Honda recomends changing water pumps when you change the timing belt...
