…so… Some mobile mechanic quoted me $75.. His approach is
1) To use an impact wrench on the crankshaft nut to remove the pulley and gear behind it.
2) Once removed, use a bolt extractor…
Not sure if that would work. I can imagine the crankshaft nut will be on much more seized…..And he would need to secure the pulley so it doesn’t spin while he’s trying to remove the crankshaft nut.
Seems overly complicated, not to mention it would f up my gear timing sync I think..
