thanks

 

to get it off or to put it back on?

putting it on, just crank that sob down. the problem is that the engine will turn before you get it very tight.. if you have an impact wrench, just set it kinda light and zap it down and be done with it. that bolt is HUGE so you won't have a problem overtorquing it.. the only problem is getting it off without turning over the engine.

 

I sat there with the impact wrech and WD-40 for 20 minutes but I got her off

 

Mmmm 5 spd..
I stuck the car in gear and had dad stand on my brake pedal and jumped on the end of a 3 ft cheater bar and it popped loose on about the 4th jump.

 

According to '93 FSM, 90-98 ft-lb for GXE, 123-130 ft-lb for SE. I used a nylon strap wrench around the pulley to hold it while I torqued it down.

 

Thats good Dave. I made a poor man's strap wrench from one of the old fan belts wrapped around the pulley, and then bent backwards on itself, and looped it around a bolt in the front of the engine. Its the best!

 

that's a good idea. i'll try that
