Rule 308,
Did you use a crankshaft pulley holder when removing/installing the crankshaft pulley bolt? I am going to use an air impact wrench to easily remove the crankshaft pulley bolt, but a friend of mine recommended I should buy an universal pulley holder (around $50) not to rotate the crankshaft pulley. I was also told by a local mechanic that he simply used an impact wrench to remove the crankshaft pulley bolt (without using a pulley holder) since there is already some tension by a timing belt and drive belts. Do you think this is sound reasonable? Did you also remove the bottom belt protector (by removing two 10 mm bolts) to easily take out a timing belt? Thanks in advance.
