Crank Shaft Timing Belt Pulley

[Evocoop]

So i'm puttin a N1 pump into my 32 GTR and i can't figure out how to get the timing belt pulley off the crank shaft. Doesn't look like ya can get a puller on it and I think heating it with oxy is a little extreme just now. Anyway, any advice would be awesome.

Thanks

Coop

I've searched about 40 pages and can't find anyting on this so sorry if yous have covered this one befor.

Motor's in the car. But there is no room to fit the puller legs behind the pully. I just want it off so i can get the pump out. The workshop manual shows it just sliding off but it seems a little tighter than that.

there is 2 threaded holes in the front of the pulley, get a puller kit that will use 2 bolts, but it will probably break the bolts so when you have it tensioned get 2 pry bars behind the pulley and carefully work it off, use wd40 on the inside of the pulley as well.

not fun to do aye?

Ok. just found out there should be 2, 10mm holes in it to attach a puller to but either mine doesn't have one or somebody has put it on backwards. I'm stumped.??????

just try the wd40 and the 2 pry bars

Thanks DVS32R. I might put some heat on it to. I'm not concerned about the oil pump seal cause it's dead.

k, i recommend trying it without the heat 1st if you havent already, oxy would be the last resource,

question- does your crank already have the wide crank oil pump drive?

I don't know mate. I haven't got that far into yet.

I got it to move about a mil but has stopped again. And i've run out of acetelene. It's comin but.

do you know about the crank drive?

if your unsure when you get the pulley and oil pump off, take a pic of the crank where the oil pump was and some one will tell you.

good luck getting it all off

I know a bit about the drive and i know there are different size drives but i'll cross that bridge when i get there. Cheers

drill a few holes into it near the keyway and then hit it a few times with a chisel over the drilled section and let it crack through and then take it off. Buy a new one from nissan or holden for like 30bux and just use a new one...its alot less time consuming. Plus when you put a new one on you can put abit of nevercease on it so for next time it wont be frozen on so badly.

Will do. thanks

Its a very common problem, usually due to corrosion. Do as R33 Racer suggested or drill and tap two holes into it and use a puller to remove it,

[Evocoop]

Thanks everybody

It's all off now. little bit of heat, a heap of wd40 and a cole chizle between the pump and pulley slipped right off.

I'll be sure to slap some anti sieze in there befor it goes back on.

Cheers Coop

Coulda always used a 2 or 3 jaw puller carefully. I hope you werent refering to the harmonic balancer being 30 bucks?? If you were your kidding yourself lol

I couldn't get the puller legs in behind it.

R33_racer was refering to the pulley in question. I know rb26 ballances are dear as.

Crank pulley is the harmonic balancer...Same thing

Na na. we a talking about the Timing belt pulley, sits behind the ballancer. Different components alltogether.

The s15's are fun to.
