WD40?

 

already did that..took impact to it...used a long *** breaker bar...and it wont bugge.....already try heat and still wont come out..

 

I used a strong impact gun to get mine off....Don't know of any other easy way than that. Maybe ur impact gun doesn't have enough stuff??? U need an incredible hulk impact gun.

 

How do you round off a 12 pt bolt?

It was 12pt right?

Yea make sure your using a 12 point socket. All i did was held the crank pulley bolt in place while i loosened the bolts. they werent on there very tight.

 

They shouldnt be on that tight.

Just use a long breaker bar and they should come off no problem.

 

yeah..i used a 12 pt socket with a long *** breaker bar..

 

It sounds like somebody overdid it with some thread lock...

 

USE A 1/2 in impact and let the air compressor charge all the way up
to like 120 psi

THEN LET HER RIP...impact is nicer than BREAKER BAR

 

I was having trouble getting the bolt off my crank pulley one time using a real strong gun. A guy told me to put an extension on the impact and it came off first try.

 

make sure the compressor has enough *****, not just the gun.

 

oh yeah the compresor has enough *****..10hp 80 gallon compersor..it should had enough *****..but the gun i don't know...

 

did you get them off?

if there is loctite on the bolts you need to use heat(heatgun) or hit them in order to break up the loctite

 

not yet but going to try heat it up..thanks..

 

Just don't slip off with the impact like I did once Never did it again. Just rounded the bolt a tiny bit. The only thing I had was an electric impact and all the bolts came right out pretty quick..

 

Try oiling the gun, and make sure that its on its highest setting

 

try that stuff.....PB blaster it's the best!!
