Hi,

I was just wondering what is the correct direction to remove the crank pulley bolt for a Japanese (JDM) h22a?

 

lefty=loosy
righty=tighty

 

yeah its a bitch to get off jjexpress. Save yourself alot of time and anger management sessions afterwards by purchasing the crank pulley holding tool. Look it up in the search if you decide to save yourself some hair and pulled muscles aswell as broken car parts from the way some people try to remove the crankpulley using dumb "muscle"

Don't impact the shiet out of it to get it off like lots of mechanics do. Thats pure lazyness and shows a lack of professionalism in my part. If your a shop you should have the right parts to do the job right.

Than its just a matter of using a long leverage breaker bar and good ol controlled arm strenght to get the bolt off

 

spray it with PB blaster or another penetrating oil this should help a bit.
