Default RE: Removing the crank bolt

Putting in my $0.02 Dont do it by the flywheel. Dont take the cover off... I tried that and mine caused me some troubled. I cracked the tranny case. BAD MOVE on my part.

I actually pulled one of the pullies you have on yours from a junk yard once. Bought a big screwdriver... One that fits right in the holes of the pully. Got a long 1/2 drive breaker bar. screwdriver = in hole... breaker bar = bolt. You get the idea? or like the others say... 2 bolts or whatever in the holes and pry with a pry bar...

Good luck.. Thats the cursed bolt.

I am new to Hondas, but I had a 94 cherokee with 160k, so I know where your coming from, it looks like a lot of rust there, PB blaster, liquid wrench, spray spray spray, patience is a virtue it will eventually come, if you have spray it evry time it doesnt come in effort to brake it loose, sometimes I take a flat head screw driver and maybe take a hammer and tap on on the head of the screw, being careful not to do it real hard because its the crank your beating on, it will come eventually, and if your incapable of doing anything the other guys said, take a big pair of vice grips, hold the crank pulley, you may tear it up, but getting that bolt out iis more important, take you 1/2 drive and turn. It has to come eventually, let me know. Hope this helps.
