I started to change my timing belt and front seals but I cant get the damn crank pulley bolt off. tried propping a breaker bar on the cam pulley against the alternator, timing belt jumped a notch.
was looking for the acces hole on the tranny(AT) to wedge the torque converter, but couldnt find it. there are some freeze plug-looking caps on the tranny behind the axles, but as I understand it the torque converter is at the front of the tranny in the bellhousing.
so where is the access hole, like what side and how high?
thanks for any input.
wow, those pics helped immensely, thanks bro. just got the bolt off(had to use a 4 ft long pipe on the breaker bar) and a piece of threads 2 threads long and about 90 deg. wide came out. kinda scary...
Long time ago when I changed my timing belt, I used a chain wrap then a breaker bar to open mine. It damaged my pulley a little, with small teeth sinking onto the pulley. I used file to smooth them back but had I known this 'crank the engine' method, my pulley would still be all smooth today. Anyway, it never gives me any problem so I'm fine with it. Next time if I ever need to change the timing belt or other thing, I would definitely use the 'crank the engine' method.
