So I have a leak at my timing chain cover and I need to replace the gasket.
I've already done all the necessary disassembly (fan clutch, radiator, water pump, etc) but before the timing chain cover will come off I need to get the Crankshaft pulley center bolt out.
I already have the Harmonic balancer puller tool, but I use that after I get the main bolt out, right? I've read that the bolt can be broken by resting a breaker bar on the frame and popping the starter, but with my heads off waiting for new gaskets that's not much of an option.
I've never worked with this area and I'm not entirely sure how it all works, if anybody has any pictures or general info it would be very helpful; the Haynes Manuel is very broad for this.
