Yes, Wayne, I've got a couple: Why would anyone need/want to r&r just the pulley? Seems likely one would only be doing this in order to remove the the crank torsional dampener so one can replace a leaky crankshaft seal in the timing cover. True? So the real questions, in my mind, remain: the continued saga onto the seal issue! What, if any, specialized tools would be necessary to complete that task? Care to continue this DIY How-to?


addendum: Okay, never mind all this, just discovered the other DIY threads that do indeed answer my questions, duh!
