Crankshaft bolt removal
I am trying to change the timing belt on my dad's 2004 endevour>it has 56000 miles on the odometer.The bolt that holds the crank pulley wont come off.I tried using the impact gun with no luck.Then I sparyed trizol which is like wd40 on the bolt and let it sit for a 10min.Tried it again with the impact gun with no success.I have a small air compressor.Is there a way to get this bolt off or do I have to let a professional tech to do the job? I am trying to help my dad who is on a fixed income.thank you in advance for reading my post.

tyres have tread, bolts have threads.
i know it's a self tightening bolt, so as it doesn't wind itself off under normal driving conditions.
i know also that stopping it from moving, like by leaving a socket and bar on it, while cranking the engine will free the pulley, usually, by undoing the bolt.
but hey, carry on.
