Cant remove civic crank pulley
I am trying to do a timing belt on a 98 civic dx but I am stuck at trying to remove the crank pulley. I know there is a special tool to hold the timing belt pulley while I try to unbolt it, but I have been unable to find anyplace that sells the tool. Anybody have any ideas or know where to get the tool? Thanks

I sprayed my bolt with PB Blaster, left it overnight, took off the starter, and jammed a prybar in the flywheel while using a 4 foot cheater bar on the breaker bar.

I tried to put a screwdriver in the flywheel and it would not hold. I also left the car in gear and still could not get it off. Oh, also, is the bolt reverse threaded? It was on my old camaro, but I am not sure if they are on the honda. I think I need to get the tool, or will have to take it into the shop.

Re: Cant remove civic crank pulley (coldlight)
if you have something to heat the end of the bolt up with that always helps too, then try the impact while the bolt head is red hot. good luck
