Need a shop to remove my crank pully bolt. Heya peeps, I have been working on my soarer the last few days. Im in the middle of doing the 100k stuff, i.e. timing belt. I cleared away all the crap and got to the crank pully but for the life of me I cant get the lil bastard to let loose. So I am wondering if anyone knows of a shop in Nanaimo that may be willing to remove the bolt and instal my new purple hks timing belt. Any recomendations?? |
Go to a tool rental place and get a 600ft/lb impact gun and compressor. It'll get it off. |
LoL that sounds like a bit much. I dont want to break it off. :D, do u know of a place in Nanaimo that would rent that equipment? |
if it's anything like the one on my 7M, you will need something like HCR32 suggested. Ryan (nashman) brought over his big impact gun and had the bolt off in 5 seconds flat. I couldn't get it off with a big breaker bar or my small impact gun. |
auto or standered |

Use some he-man strength. Seriously, I broke mine myself - LOTS of penetrating lube, big half inch drive breaker bar, a good socket, and some strength. PS - I'm not a big guy either :P |
1) Crank pulley bolt -> socket -> pry bar -> wedge to ground (check direction of rotation) 2) bump starter (and duck) 3) hope you didn't screw up (wrong direction) 4) See bolt loose (of the aftermath of pry bar sent flying into sheet metal) Or borrow someone's $85 impact wrench. It'll probably pull it off on setting 2 (out of 4). :) |
my mac 1/2" impact gun makes short work of most crank bolts, even ones that Nashman says it wont be able to break loose. :P |

Thanks for all the info!! |
Just putting this out there: sometime crank bolts have reverse threads. Not saying this is the case here, but I have been burned on this before. |
