    When i pull that bolt i have to use a heavy duty impact gun and i try to tighten the bolt a little first. That seems to get things moving than try to get it out.

    i tried an open ended wrench, a box end wrench, 3/8 drive rachet, 1/2 drive rachet, 3/8 drive air rachet, 1/2 drive air rachet, 3/8 drive impact gun, 1/2 drive impact gun, i've tried hitting the rachet with a rubber mallet to break it loose, (too light), next i moved to a 10lbs. sledge to break it loose. And it just keeps laughing at me. the fuckin bolt will not break loose. Oh yeah did i mention i busted TWO sockets trying to get it off.... am i just missing something...??

    I think there's some shit called PB Blaster or something that works awesome...might wanna get the crank nut tool from Moroso. how are you keeping it from spinning? that's a big problem I had doing it by hand.

    yeah, I had to take my si engine to a shop for a friend to bust it loose...couldnt do it even w/ his gun on my compressor...on my zc, I went really ghetto and hacked up the bottom of the tbelt cover w/ my dremel and yanked it around the crank pulley and then put the tbelt on....not the best way, but I had no other choice. haha.

    ...get the tool from Honda or Moroso (probably cheaper) to hold the pulley...either that, or find a way to transport the engine to a shop so they can bust it loose for you. I think those are your only two options.... good luck sissy.
