how do you take the crank pulley off? its on a d15b2 if that makes a difference, is there some special trick im suppose to do cause when i put a wrench on the nut it just spins it, i know im doing something wrong...any suggesstions

what if you dont have one? does it just need to be like held in place then so the bolt can be cracked loose?

rent one

u need it for like 2 seconds

if the engine is outta the car and the flywheel is still on u can tell ur buddy to hold it while u crank

mahcivic

well im ---- out of luck cause the fly wheel isnt on,

SpankedYA!

Jordan strap a chain wrech around the crank pulley(with a piece of rubber under so you dont mar it up)to hold it, then put your socket on and use a long ratchet and hit it with hard shots from a hammer. You have to shock it loose.

So if the flywheel isnt on I'm assuming the engine isnt in the car then right? Well if you dont have a flywheel, do you atleast have 2 or 3 flywheel bolts? they are special thread but just screw them in a little ways then get a long pry bar and slide in between the bolts. Basically so the engine doesnt rotate around when your trying to bust the crank pulley bolt free. Otherwise you will need a 1/2 impact gun. Electric ones suck *****, definatly need a decent air compressor and impact gun.

yea the motors on a stand...im gonna try that. thanks jeff

Good luck Jordan hope you bust the nut :P I even had trouble breaking my crank pulley bolt loose with an Impact gun. It took a while for it to finally loosen.
