Slow progress, mostly because I’m doing this all for the first time. Thanks again for all the help.
I removed the oil sending unit and successfully used the chain wrench to remove the crankshaft and two cam gears. A piece of the old timing belt worked just fine.
The Crankshaft pulley is stuck on though. The YouTube video showed him just slide it off after he removed the bolt. He did say something like, “We got lucky.” I didn’t.
Any tips on getting the pulley off?
Edit* hammer and crowbar.
I'm going to rent a torque wrench for the crankshaft bolt. Can I put it all together and go back to torque before I put the serpentine belt on? Or do I need to do it before lining up the cam gears?
