Question type: Maintenance & Repair

i have an eg and i tried for a hour to remove the pulley bolt, not the belt sproket to change my belt. i tried using a 1/2" drive impact gun and also used a breaker bar with an extra long cheater bar. Any suggestions, please?

r u talkin abt the cam or the crank ??if the crank u r talkin abt so u should use a puller and spray WD40 , DONT heat it up coz u may screw the crank seal try it and let me know

thanks for the tip, but i took it off by jaming the flywheel and using a cheater bar. btw wd40 wont work 'cause it only lubes the outside, not the threads.
