I will be replacing it and all, with the help of a buddy, I wanted to know if there was anything i should be aware of or know before doing it. any tips etc? its a pretty straight forward process, so hopefully it will go off without a hitch, im thinking about replacing the timing belt while im in there but idk.

Look at me.... look at me.....
I'm proud of you! just loosen/remove the alternator belt, then undo the crank bolt, and remove the pulley. If you cant get the pulley off, you might need to go rent/buy a pulley puller. -------------------- 15PSI - 30MPG - Megasquirt Tuned

LOL! thanks lagos! thats means alot to me!
![]() ![]() ive been reading that its a PITA to get harmonic balancers off without it spinning... no power tools available, so breaker bar it is! btw... should i be able to get my grubby hands on a proper air tool, what are the torque specifications to put it back on? and if i cant get an air tool im thinking about bypassing extra muscle-->elbow grease-->puttin my back into it---> straight to ROID rage strenth! ![]() -------------------- |

sometimes air tools cant get those things off.
a cool trick that people recommend is to put your socket on a breaker bar, and wedge the bar against the floor. then blip the starter (pull out your efi fuse so the car dont start) a few times and use the torque of the starter to get the bolt off. ![]() -------------------- 15PSI - 30MPG - Megasquirt Tuned

Just put it in gear. "sounds" scary, but it works. but, if you have a lightweight flywheel, with a bolted on ring gear, like the fidanza, you do not want to do that. the shock of doing it can round out the bolt holes and ruin the flywheel. -------------------- Former Team 5SFTE pro member ;)
