Default Is the crank pulley bolt on a 1996 honda civic reverse threads or normal threads?

It is an EXDo you guys think a craftsman pro impact with 710ft of torque should pull this thing off?Because I just bought one and it isnt LOLJust in case anyone else is having this problem I found out my 1/4" air line wasnt cutting it with my new impact. I bought some 1/2" line and it opened that baby up LOL. Finally got that mofo off!!! Of course it didnt help that I actually tightened the bolt at first with the starter as I tried the old bump the starter trick only to find out the motor was mounted the wrong way for doing that.

It has normal threads. If you're trying to get it off, you'll need a special tool.

You'll need a special tool for that, go to checkers and buy one they should have it for around 30 bucks, it's shaped like a hex and hollow goes right over the crankshaft bolt so you can hold the pulley with a socket wrench and turn the bolt with another wrench. Oh yeah it's normal thread
