Anyone have any tips on getting a stuck crank pulley off? I tried an airgun already... no dice. Any other wacky ideas? Thanks guys!

 

I think you need a special tool.

 

pb blaster, a propane torch, and a mallet.

 

try some type of hub puller maybe....just make sure you don't damage the teeth on the pulley...

 

the pulley will come off just fine I'm sure, i just can't get the bolt off...

 

I'm serious - if you have these three things by your side, everything will come together.

It NEVER fails you. Ever.

Is the engine spinning instead of the bolt?

 

oh damn that bolt is a bitch i had a honda motor it just would not come out of..... even tried a long breaker bar and cranking the engine..... impact was no luck..... heat & wd40 didn't effect it

 

yep, I hosed it down with liquid wrench and banged on it with a hammer for a little bit...and then hit it up with the airgun again.

I think i might need a bigger airgun... one that goes up to 600 ft. lbs instead of this teeny tiny 400...

 

I said PB Blaster - don't sleep on it.

Bigass ratchet, bigass pipe, jump on that bitch.

(That's the cheap mexican coming out - if you want to take the time to go find and/or buy a bigger airgun, go ahead. You're white. That's your perogative.)

 

hahaha, i tried the mexican breaker bar yesterday and it just spins the engine instead of the bolt...
