Changing trans fluid to DW-1, drain and fill or flush?

First, I know not to power flush a Honda trans. By "flush" I mean a machine that uses the pump in the trans to replace the fluid using the cooler lines.

Re: Alternator belt and PS belt change and adjustments.

Re: dire need of help or ideas...

I don't know much about 92 Accords, does the cam belt pulley run off that same key? If so you probably just helped a piston and a valve get to know each other better.

Re: Crankshaft sprocket removal

Mine didn't want to come off at first but I was able to walk the pulley off the crank. Use two hands and pull one side then the other. Work it back and forth until it comes loose.
