crank pulley

[keo]

im going e-fan, i kinda having a problem right now (at the moment) taking out the water pump housing. lolz what else is new.

How do you take out the crank pulley. Is there an easier way to take it off?

I put the car in gear, 1-5, reverse and it just keeps turning.
Might as well just change the timing belt everything is out of the way.

How many lbs. do i tight up the crank pulley bolt?

thanks

use air tools. if that fails, put a long (5' +) pipe over your breaker bar and try to get it off that way. and if that fails, use the starter to get it off.

make sure you have a harmonic balancer puller to get the crank pulley off once you remove that bolt.

got it already, hehe
went out to buy one of those chain wrenches tools for the pulley.

so easy.

thanks for the reply.

i was thinking,
Danmg that is HIGH my torque wrench doesnt even go that high.

I believe it's 180 for the 5M crank bolt, don't see why there'd be much difference between the specs.

its a jz series engine,not an m series.i don't remember the 2j crank pulley torque spec.
