Crank Timing Pulley

[Frank rb25 zed]

I am stripping my " blown up " RB26dett

How does the Crank timing Gear come off?

Harmonic balancer is off.

How do I pull the Crank Timing Gear off?

Needs to come off so I can remove oil pump.

Cant find it in the Manual.

If its supposed to come off easy, mine is jammed on.

Am I missing something obvious?

Thanks

it is most likely rusted on, you may have to destroy it to get it off. They are cheap to buy new from nissans genuine parts.

What he said, use some heat on it, it may come, if not you have to destroy it .

What's the best way of destroying it without damaging the oil pump and crank?

Use a small angle grinder to cut a groove on it (doesn't have to be all the way to the crank) then a drift to split it . You may find that the heat from the grinder will loosen it up .

If i was you i would use an oxy torch on it first , just heat the gear and it will come, always worked for me .

Drilling and tapping some 8mm holes and puting a puller on some bolts in there worked for my RB20. Reused it as well as should still be OK.

if it doesnt come off after any normal removal methods we just drill a few holes inline along half of it and tap it a few times and it just cracks through...bingo. Here in aus its about 40 bucks for a brand new one.
