Dude, I went through two broken knuckles, a broken tool, an impact wrench, messed up shoulder cuff, and in the end, wrapping my serpentine belt around the AC Compressor with a rachet with bar on the end of it worked. Not only did it work, I barely felt it break free. This was amazing ingenuity. Thank you!
I helped a Honda guy do that once. Instead of a swivel head ratchet I used a 3/4 drive T-wrench & a 4' long piece of 1" pipe on the T-wrench. Started with a 3/4 to 1/2 reducer & a 19mm impact socket. Broke the adapter so I welded the socket directly to the adapter because we couldn't find a 3/4 drive 19mm socket. Finally got it off but it was a struggle.
Yep this is the same issue when trying to change the water pump and timing belt on my son 2005 civic now I got to get the high torque electric impact wrench 🤬
Great job. Thank you thank you very much for this video and life hack. I had the same problem on my Audi TT nothink worked but your method with the belt was geat thank you❤️
I use a Milwaukee 2767 1/2" M18 high impact wrench and have never had a problem. The newer Milwaukee 2967 with the M18 XC 6.0 Forge is even more powerful. I do, however, remember the days when I had to struggle and took a chance of getting hurt. Luckily, those days are long gone.
I know. That same thing happened to me on my 1989 Honda Crx HF. I used a brand new Snap-On 1/2" air impact which was the top of the line at the time and it didn't budge the crankshaft bolt. Taking that bolt off was a nightmare. This technique was a great tip for those that don't have any sort of impact wrench. @@kybirge3431
So long as it's anchored by something heavy enough, or in a position where you can stand on whatever is holding it, you will nearly ALWAYS have more torque pulling UP on a bar/ratchet than pushing on it, as you're using your strength, rather than just your body weight.
I can't help but think that... For at least 70 years, of automobile construction, nobody, had to worry about the crank pulley coming off. And then snap-on comes along with a little thunder gun.... And now nobody can get it off. Do you understand what planned obsolescence is yet? You're not supposed to fix that piece of s***. Is it supposed to throw it in the trash and get a new one. So Honda can stay in business. So Mopar can stay in business. So Ford can stay in business. Chevrolet and a great mistake corporation, and toyota, and hyundai.... They can't afford to build good products anymore.

Also, I cranked on it so hard that it broke my seized engine free, which was why I was taking it apart to begin with Lol
I'm glad you found this video helpful

That crank bolt is a pain, nice way of using the belt to assist.

Looks fun i don't know why I didn't take it out before pulling the motor but I'm in for a treat i guess.
Thank you men, you saved me!
Hey hey no problem. Thanks for the comments
Use a 1/2 in high torque impact and a 19mm lisle crankshaft socket
didn’t work

@@wallebo i even used a real impact (air) and it didn’t work even with the specialty socket

You need a 3/4” breaker bar and a hollow pipe to extend your lever.
So long as it's anchored by something heavy enough, or in a position where you can stand on whatever is holding it, you will nearly ALWAYS have more torque pulling UP on a bar/ratchet than pushing on it, as you're using your strength, rather than just your body weight.
I'm using a 6200Nm torque multiplier (1:78) attached to the pulley.
That made me sweet just watching it I'm doing mine as we speak can't get it to budge and engine is still in car lol😢 what if I heat the bolt first
Put some anti-seize to make it easier for the next guy
M18 high torque Milwaukee will solve the issue with one finger
That’s what I thought but didn’t happen
didn't work on ferrari and many honda models.
My Honda 3.5 bolt is stuck after I broke the 30" breaker bar using the starter motor trick. Don't know what else to do.
what is a 3.5 bolt?
Can this work for tightening the crank bolt?

Dude I went through two divorces and a new engine before I got that bolt off
Weighted sockets
I invented a tool it will take the bolt out less than two minutes.
buy a crankpulley holder...
That shit don’t work
damper s.
