tonytoca_87 Posted May 16, 2020 Report Share Posted May 16, 2020 Has anyone ever had to replace the harmonic balancer on the LQ1? How hard or easy is it and do I need to rent a puller from the parts store for the removing process? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rich_e777 Posted May 17, 2020 Report Share Posted May 17, 2020 That coolant pipe is going to have to get out of the way for any sort of puller to get on the HB from what I can see on mine. Mine is still supported by the bay tool and it looks as if the engine may have to come down an inch or two to get access too. Yes you`ll need a certain tool to remove and reinstall but its not that complicated to use. tonytoca_87 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The pipe near the pulleys is rusted and the other pipe that runs right above the manifold is leaking bad. You can see it drip when car warms up. I have been trying to search for those pipes but I guess there discontinued parts. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
