So i am working on the valve cover stud that was broke and i drop it in the timing belt area and lost it!!!!!!!!!!! DAMN....... So i am trying to find it and there is no way in hell, so i try to take the cover off and drop another bolt in there and cant find either of them. I spin the pulley a little to try and move them around and snap that damn belt. OK, so i need to replace the belt. I cant get the pulley off. Any ideas???? Here is what i have tried

Air Impact 250PSI
trannie dust cover and a pry bar then a 1/2 drive with 6 foot extension
starter removed and above
strap wrench
chain wrench
5th gear and someone on the brakes

I have done everything shy of pee on the damn thing. I am selling the car as soon as this is done.

 

try renting a more powerful air gun...that is the only thing that got mine off. My air gun is not powerful enough.

 

I used a long extension, a big breaker bar, and a 3+ foot cheater bar slipped over the end of it. But a powerful impact gun should work.

 

the sell special sockets for the crank pully bolt

 

I wish I could get my car off the ground that high to use the first method Bret.

 

You don't really have to get it up in the air at all....just get the front wheel out of the way.

 

rented a new impact, no luck, i swear, this is not going to be god.

 

Soak it in some penetrating oil for a while.

 

Ahh...I see now. I missed what the long extension was for...

Good idea!!

 

i cant find one in my area. i can order one but i need this done tonight.
