Swampy442 Posted August 19, 2011 Share Posted August 19, 2011 How do you get it off? There doesnt seem to be any obvious way besides trying to lever it, and Im not doing that! Is there a special tool or something? Thanks in advance Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scott Posted August 19, 2011 Share Posted August 19, 2011 Stupid question but I'm guessing you have removed the bolt thing holding it? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SimonB Posted August 19, 2011 Share Posted August 19, 2011 You need a pulley puller. There are two threaded holes which you can attach a puller to - it pushes against the centre of the crank and pulls the timing gear off. Unless you already have the gear off and are talking about the timing wheel itself, which is part of the gear - it's not supposed to detatch.

Swampy442 Posted August 19, 2011 Author Share Posted August 19, 2011 Ive got the crank pulley off, its the one behind, cam belt drive/crank position timing wheel, dont actually know its correct name lol. Basically Im trying to change the front main seal but thats in the way. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Basically Im trying to change the front main seal but thats in the way. Yeah, that's the one. It's the same principle as the main crank pulley, screw a puller in via the two small threaded holes. Something like this one, although this one might be too big:- http://www.machinemart.co.uk/shop/product/details/cht248-13-pce-harmonic-balance-puller Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scott Posted August 19, 2011 Share Posted August 19, 2011 Yup, I assumed you had a pull and couldn't get it off Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Swampy442 Posted August 19, 2011 Author Share Posted August 19, 2011 Aah right cool, cheers Ive got pullers, but theyre the sort that hook behind it, and I dont want to distort it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scott Posted August 19, 2011 Share Posted August 19, 2011 Aah right cool, cheers Ive got pullers, but theyre the sort that hook behind it, and I dont want to distort it. It's very easy to make one if you fancy it? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Scott Posted August 19, 2011 Share Posted August 19, 2011 Good stuff, keep it simple. 2 holes and 3rd drilled & tapped hole. 2 bolts to screw onto the wheel and a long bolt to push off the centre Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
