Good Morning,

I've heard about how if your mechanic uses an impact wrench to remove the crank pulley when changing the timing belt, you risk cracking the cast crankshaft. If this happens, I was wondering if you can go for awhile not knowing there is a crack, or will the shaft break right away?

The problem is you never really know what these guys do. I've heard that even some dealers will use an impact wrench.
