Impact Gun electric

http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll...DME:B:AAQ:US:1

i would like to change the timing belt but the next month (i want to save money for to buy more stuff this (besides the ecu by xen..) ..

i have seem two write- up about to change timing belt (besides factory service manual) but my family say that not , i'm wouldnt be to able for change it.. my brother neither.. :'( , i would like to change.. but.. is it very very very hard? i know that to remove the crank bolt is very difficult..i have some tools as torque wrench ,ratchet, screwdriver..spanner, allen wrench and the next week i going to buy two jack stand ...

the bad part is that i havent garage (though my father yes but is very little , but he live far to me but..).. so i think that i would can to do it in the street?

I am disappointed :'(

if u take your time u can probably do it. i dont know if the elec gun has the power to undue a crank pully bolt, but there are ways to do it w/ hand tools

yeah but i havent a breaker bar , but when i go to buy the stand jack i hope to find a breaker bar (what do i need more?) .. i have time (for my car all time :P).. but i need encourage myself because i think that i have not help of none.. (my friend say that he doesnt dare to do it with me.. :'( )..

i need too a special tool for to move the engine to TDC right? for example.

I have tried loosening the crank bolt it is a bloody nightmare. Tried using air impact gun (although they are not hte best in the world) it didn't budge. Then I got hold of the crank holding tools and an extra breaker bar, using my whole body weight even try jumping on it (as I have the engine out) still not loose.....

But give it a bash first before giving up.... As it would be so satisfying to get that bitch of a bolt off :D

Don't waste your $$ on the electric ones. And theres no excuse for not owning a breaker bar, its a piece of pipe, the longer the better too.

My dad can beat up your dad. worthless post retard. ^^

They are very handy. Just like a corded drill Vs. a cordless. Not the same power, but way more portability.

I would not spend the money on an electric impact right now. Get yourself an 18" bar and some pipe, problems solved. I don't own an impact and there is nothing on the car I can't remove. Sure it is harder, but in the begining start small on the tools.
