Putting a new timing belt on my 420a. Can;t get the harmonic balancer to pull off. Using a correct puller, even heated it.

Any tips?

 

did you loosen the bolt that leads to the pulley?? just watch heating it, my bolt on mine snapped and i wasnt even using heat

 

Got it off today. Just took a lot more pulling.

 

hah ok, congrats.. i guess lol, glad you got it off.

 

where'd you get the puller at? advance or auto zone?

 

oh yea, be sure to grease it up before you put it back on or you will have just as much trouble if you have to take it off again haha

 

Bought a puller off ebay. Has all you need to pull and to put it on.

Now I have a problem that the drive belts keep breaking. I have tried to check that the pulleys are all exactly equal. Also checked pulley's to assure that they are not bent.

Only thing removed was crank pulley and powersteering pump. Harmonic Balancer is new. Wonder if it possibly is not a good manufacturer? Made in China.
