Harmonic Balancer Question
Or Flywheel, whatever you call it...
1998 Acura CL 2.3L
It this a normal right hand threaded bolt? I am trying to get this off and I am unable to budge it. I have been trying to loosen it with the perscribed tool in Chiltons.. A 2 inch pipe fitting or some such as that. Thanks for the response guys, I do not want to break the bolt off. It is hooked to the crank

Don't know about the 2.3 engine, but on the 2.5 I-5, the pulley bolt is really ON there! It's a normal thread, but it's on so tight that people have broken their tools trying to remove it. So while I can't say with any certainty that yours is a normal thread, I'd suspect that it is.
If there's room in there, an impact wrench might help.
