ok so i went to the store bought everything needed to do my water pump and timing belt over the weekend
98 celica 5sfe convertible i got everything set up and started taking everything apart.. everything was cherry until ....i got to the crank pulley bolt .. it will not move..ive tried 3 different impact guns ive tried a special tool to hold the pulley in place with the bolt holes and the tool broke.. ive tried a single bolt and a pry bar to hold it in place and the bolt bent all to hell.. is there anything else i cant try to take this bolt out ...safely ? id appreciate it if you guys have some ideas, i have 1 day left to work on it.. then have to travel back to school |

I used the starter method but use it at your own risk I don't want to be reliable if you do it wrong Google it and you will know what I mean. dont think this will work for me ...i already have taken the top section of the timing belt off ....and the engine is on TDC #1 comp ..has anyone tried heating the bolt up ? i heard that works .. I loosened the crank bolt before I took anything off because I knew I was gonna run into this problem if I didn't do it first, you can always reconnect the timing belt and use the starter trick will save you time and headaches and worked with the first starter blip for me. -------------------- "To Protect And To Serve The Wealthy" -POLICE
