thanks, i did a search, but didnt find that thread. thanks.

bolt is off now (i wedged a hammer in the crank), but now the crank pulley is stuck fast - nothing will budge it

any ideas? looks like there is an SST for it, but needless to say, i dont have it, nor anything similar.

I know quite a few guys have destroyed theirs getting it off and replaced with a new or 2nd hand one

have you used a 'puller' to try and remove the pulley?
or just trying to pry it off??

Oh crap I thought that 2nd thread was the one about getting the pulley off, didn't bother to read it properly. I will search again

were in auckland are you? im in pakuranga and have a puller if you get stuck
they usually have a little corrosion on them,

if looks bad, spray some crc or wurth rost off on it

I removed the crank pulley with one of the Valve compressors from repco came off easy as (Had the valve compressor from doing the valves on my Escort). Did a similar thing as you for undoing it and doing it up except I used a big ass crowbar so it hit the floor when I (un)tightened the bolt.
