I am trying to remove the eccentric shaft lock bolt. Is it a standard bolt that unscrews counter-clockwise? Anyone have any helpful hints to get it off? I have tried an impact wrench and a littel heat but it won't move.

those things are on there! we put a breaker bar on it, and hit the breaker bar with a jack handle. if that doesnt work we put it in a press

the front bolt in the center of the pulley? An impact allways takes that sucker right off. is the engine in or out of the car?

make sure the flywheel is held down so that the engine doesn't spin while you are trying to take it off. Other than that, we used a breaker bar with a jack handle as well.. took some force but finally got it.

you guys need stronger impact guns, or bigger air compressors!

**** we used "Big Bertha" on it and it couldn't bust it...



this was at my old job at Discout Tire Co. where we have all the professional **** and Big Bertha is for doing RV wheels and ****. lol

The engine is out of the car. What do you use to hold the flywheel when using a breaker bar?

air compressor maybe

I am at home in a garage so I only have 125 psi. This might be a good excuse to get a 3/4 or 1 inch impact wrench but man that sucker is on tight.
