Auto Repair – Honda Crank Pulley Tool Use
Posted on February 22nd, 2010 by admin
http://www.denlorstools.com/autoblog/ Also see link below to go directly to the article on how to loosen the Honda crank pulley bolt when other methods fail, like the big impact gun etc. The tech in the video (me)an ASE master technician, I first encountered a stubborn crank bolt on a Honda back in 1990. I remember the frustration of not being able to find the correct tool at the time, so when I started selling tools, I wanted to help others facing this problem. See my Honda Timing Belt Tips at http://www.denlorstools.com/home/dt1/page_6807/honda_and_acura_timing_belt_helpful_tips.html Specialty tools are available there.

ha ha, That is some nasa automotive engineering to get that bolt loose.Love the breaker bar to floor wedge:) I am a auto tech also and have replaced many t-belts on Accords and Civics and can tell from experience that those Honda crank bolts are the tightest out there. Sometimes I can bust them loose with my 3/4″ impact

Watch using a pipe chain, because it can damage the pulley where the belt rides. This can result in belts wearing out prematurely.

Thanks for the …
Thanks for the input. This was done low to simulate not having a vehicle rack. If a lift is used, a long breaker bar without extensions can be used, since clearing the car isn’t a problem. Also, if using the extensions, try using multiple short ones instead of one or two longer ones that tend to flex more. The short extension combo seems to lose less torque power as a result.

I understand what …
I understand what you are saying, but I’m speaking from experience – “it doesn’t work.” See the Honda Timing Belt Tips article (click the link in the more info section) for more information based on my experience as a Master Auto Technician. I first tried that method back in the early 1980’s! Thanks for your comments.
