Camshaft Pulley Removal


Rabbi

Recommended Posts

What tool do i need to remove these guys??

Ive called EVERY automotive place within a 100 mile radious. Nobody has any idea where to buy/rent one of these. Ive even called speciaty tool shops. NOPE

 

 

 

anyway where can i buy one of these online?

 

Or is there anyway to remove the gears WITHOUT a camshaft gear holding tool?

 

 

thanks

You have to have a cam hold down tool. Get some key stock and cut it, then drill it. You need to do this to remove the bolts from the cams. After that you pull the cam COGS (not pulley).

i was under the impression that the hold down tools were only to hold the cams in place. And that you still need a cam gear puller to break the bolts to pull the lock rings.

 

It shows the tutorial on 60 degree v6 , it says to use both tools.

I just use the cam hold down tool.

 

Most of the time the pulleys fall off.....otherwise they just need some simple encouragement from a soft faced hammer.
