God DAHm crank pully bolt just snaps off and the pully started jumping up and down through out the whole bottom of the car. We jump out to find the pully. Huh that was fun I95 pitch black using a light off a cell phone. What a joke. Could'nt find the pully but find the other half of the bolt. Funny.. Anyways we drove the car another 2-3 miles with no pully off the exit and out to a gas station
he said he lost it thats not possible!

My friend had a brand new batt. The lower plastic cover was on so that was the only thing keeping the timing belt in place. The batt died as soon as we pulled into the hotel. Dude On the other topic don't hate on me because Im a fast worker! I guess I just know more then you on using tools. Anyways I will post pics of the belt,crank bolt section, and all tomm. I have no reason to bullshit you guy's. My grammer is fucked ohh well sorry. Im not a writer in life. Sue me!

Not to re-hash on the subject, but technically. Wouldn't the car run w/o a crank pulley? He just wouldn't have a working alternator, power steering pump and what ever else is driven by the pulley right?

A car won't run very long without alternator current, so I don't think it is possible to drive it more than a few miles even with the timing belt still attached.

I just find this somewhat impossible considering the strength of those pulley bolts, the crank key, and the belts holding it on would make it very difficult to snap off.

On a side note......My ac compressor siezed up once (shares belt with alternator) and I cut the belt off to get home. Anyways, I made about a 30 minute drive without a alternator. Thats with stereo and all lights off.

that's because your alternator was still working. the two do not share a belt.
