Are there any tricks or anything to avoid having it towed to a shop to use an impact wrench to get that damn bolt off... I've seriously messed with it for a week straight and cannot get it to bust loose... Someone said something about spinning the engine over and using a ratchett and go the opposite direction.. I dunno he confused me but any tricks or ideas would be greatly appriciated
no, no, no. that will that will make the bolt tighter if you spin the engine with a breaker bare on it. um, if you have enuff space and some help try getting a nice big breaker bare with a 6 point socket and use a 3lbs sledge on the tip of the breaker bare. be carefull though, this isnt the best or safest way. just kinda the last thing on the list to try
they also have a tool that you can hold the flywheel with, but i dont know how you would do that without takeing off some housing
ps 83ft lbs is the torque for the crank bolt.
no lol... Its on an 89 Prelude SI
They say that "guns don't kill people, people kill people." Well I think the gun helps. If you just stood there and yelled "BANG", I dont think you'd kill too many people
Take it to the dealer. They should do it for like 20 bucks.
No projects. Life consumes my time and money.
so u got two of them then. Two crank pully bots to take out. EEEks. U have the breaker bar? i would say just let the damn bolt soak in a penetrating lubricant and see what happens.Originally Posted by pimp_n87LXi
