What's the best way to get the crank pulley bolt off of a 1999 Honda Civic
HX engine? I am aiming to replace the timing belt. Chilton's lists special
tools 07NAB-001040A pulley holder, 07MAB-PY3010A pulley holder, and
07JAB-001020A holder handle, but I am thinking impact wrench. It's just a
17mm head on the bolt, but it won't turn unless I figure out how to hole the
pulley really solid. Or should I just have a shop do it? I live 120 miles
from the dealer or anyone I would trust with this repair. Mountain life is
great, except when you run into a special tool that you don't have.

Thanks.

Thanks. It looks as if I will be in business when that wrench gets here.
