helpppppp...... how the hell do u get a crankshaft pulley off ur motor? the engine is in the car and we need to change ir to a double pulley but we cant figure out how to get the single pulley off.

we have tried everything we can think of but still havnt been able to get it off.

we have the car in 1st low range and the motor still cranks over.

how can we get it off?

need help urgently cause this car is our only car atm and it needs to be driving tomorrow....

Have you un done the bolt?? You will need a set of pullers to get it of the crankshaft.

yer soz forgoet to mention. we cant undo the bolt as the pulley/crankshaft spins withh it.

You need to put a big breaker bar on the nut and position against you chasis. Use the engine cranking over to supply the power to carack the bolt.

or put the car in gear to stop the engine turning

use a rattle gun

take the starter motor off and put a breaker into the teth off the flywheel to brace it as ur mate cracks the nut with a long breaker bar, Short but quick jolts normally gets em undone ok

Maybe late, but in HIGHER gear, with mate's foot on brake, and huge breaker bar.

Taller gear means the engine will turn less times per wheel turn.

Like baddboy said breaker bar against the chasis just touch the key tho when you give it a crank. Had to do it last week to change water pump once nut was undone to my amazement pully came off by hand
