hello board
Hope y'all had a nice summer

Anyone know about the special tool to take the crank pulley off to do a timing belt change

wonder if pep boys or Checker/kragen or Auto Zone has a loaner

Or if anyone knows a handy secret- I have a manual so choking the flywheel is really tuff
and the in gear foot on brake helper - did not work - I guess my impact wrench is a little guttless

Please and thanks

peace:

You can use towing straps or a chain wrench tool. It look's like a handle with a chain connected to one end and a stop to keep it from moving on the other. Hope that made sense.

take off the starter and pop in a bar in there in between the teeth.
