tthomasd614 Posted September 10, 2017 Share Posted September 10, 2017 Hey all! Im doing the infamous timing belt/water pump replacement and have almost dissected all the way down. However, I cannot for the life of me figure out how to loosen the tension on the belt that is connected to the harmonic balancer. I have a picture of it. Can anyone help?

It's hard to reach and you'll do well to make this: https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20170105/e252a971defa3d30563137735d9192d8.jpg https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20170105/03c9235ad3f8a0ffbea8c3188f90fadf.jpg https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20170105/2904fd7effc2f4b1a195a6a0405718a2.jpg Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Edited September 12, 2017 by onespiritbrain Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
