Title: Harmonic balancer removal Post by: Dave_EH on June 06, 2006, 12:08:33 AM I have just purchased a high quality harmonic balancer puller and I was told to "put something on the end of the crank" to prevent driving the puller bolt/pin into the crank. Has anyone heard of this being a problem? If so, what would be a suitable item/technique to prevent this happening?
Thanks Dave Title: Re: Harmonic balancer removal Post by: Ed on June 06, 2006, 03:23:03 AM never heard of that Dave...
spose you could put a small round bit of sheet there.. maybe centre punch it to keep it in place. Cheers Ed Title: Re: Harmonic balancer removal Post by: fc_1958 on June 12, 2006, 08:15:44 PM Dave
I have. I borrowed one from an old retired mechanic. He had a round disk ( around 4mm thick) as part of the set, said it stopped the point digging into the crank and spreading it.
