Hey I was wondering if anyone knows how to remove the timing sprocket that's on the crank so I can remove the oil pump. Figure u would use a pulled but I'm not sure if this is the correct process

THE Slow 5.oh?

lmao, dont use a pulley puller. hopefullyl you have it off by now, but I usually just soak it in pb blaster and wiggle it off with a flathead or small prybar.

What he said lol
Ive never had one stuck before, were you able to get the bolt loose? i actually saw that checker now rents a tool to fit in the hexagon shape inside the crank pulley. That bolt can be a pain to get loose.

I have an air gun that will bust the bolt loose real fast if u wanna drive to me ill help u.

If the bolt is off and its just stuck then try penetrating lubricant, or wiggle it back n forth with your hands

A crank timing sprocket is not a crank pulley.

my fault, never knew it had a name, i always used an air gun haha, and i remember a long time ago lots of poeple had trouble finding them and just wanted to let people know i saw one at checker, thought it would help

and im sorry i misunderstood, he means the sprocket behind the pulley and cover that the t-belt splines on? that sucks haha i have no bright ideas on that one, cant really get a puller on it either :( and cant really get a good grip with your hand. id say penetrating oil and possibly a hammer? be gentle though and good luck
