Does anyone know a way to get the big balancer bolt without using an impact. I already tried using a breaker bar with the car in a high gear but the engine would still just keep turning over.
put the breaker bar on there and slap the crap out of it with a hammer
+1 put the car in gear pull ebrake leave the belt on, and use half in ratchet or short breaker an hit with a 4lb mallet! its a manual impact usually jars it lose in a few good wacks!
Don't care too much about the ratchet. I figured hitting something that was hanging off the end of the crank could possibly do something to the motor was all
