1- Yes. any BB type has it's specific tools to remove and/or install. So what type do you have?
2- Replacement BBs need to be the same as what you already have to work the same, or at all. The bike in not in front of me so I can't tell you which BB type or spec you have. (This is why many will work with a LBS that can see the bike).
3- Once you find out which spec/type of BB you have then it's an easy step to price shop the options.
4- The first step is to find out what BB you have now. Searching on line for a spec list of your model bike might be that step. Then there's the mechanical step. Having a reference that can be next to you and your bike while doing the work is nice. Park's Big Blue Book comes to mind.
