hey all, at this time im trying to replace the timing belt on my civic. everything was going great till i got to the crankshaft pulley bolt. Is it a reverse thread??? or lefty loosie righty tighty? i do know that it needs a special tool or a air gun to remove the bolt. but at this time i dont have any of those two available. Does anyone have a trick any way to remove this bolt without special tools or air gun???
thanks

It's left to loosen it up.. And GL with that one w/ no special tools.. I broke 2 sockets and a breaker bar last night on that bitch.. Impact Wrench turns it into a 10 second job, I'm just broke as fukk since I just moved and am full time college student..

 

so counterclock right?, same here-broke as a joke.so how were you keeping the pulley in place when u broke the breaker bar and sockets?

 

if you don't have and air impact gun then you need a locking chain i think it's called... looks like a bar with a chain and it locks into the bar... i have one but air tools are easier...
