How do you break the harmonic balancer bolt lose?

 

honda makes a special tool to hold the balancer while you break the nut loose. i will see if i can find a part number for you.

what kind of car/motor is it?

 

Well, its going to be hard anyway you do it. You can do it without the tool, just find a way to make the crank/engine stay still (hold the flywheel with something long through the starter hole), then either use a impact (i had to use a 3/4 impact gun) or have a lot of friends help you with a breaker bar. Some guy on here went to his local tire place and got them to break it loose for him and he tightened some there and drove it home and took it off
