cranny Posted February 18, 2008 Share Posted February 18, 2008 why do you need to get the alternator pully off exactly? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
James Matteu Posted February 18, 2008 Share Posted February 18, 2008 Timing belt pulley, alternator pulley, which are you talking about. Take a deep breath and try again. Are you speaking of the crankcase pulley, the pulley that is physically attached to the alternator, or possibly a third pulley (this is called a tension pulley, but may not be on your motor).

Hatch92 Posted February 18, 2008 Share Posted February 18, 2008 the one on the bottom is the crank pulley Edit: you said you changed the thermostat right? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
James Matteu Posted February 18, 2008 Share Posted February 18, 2008 the big pully on the bottom connceted to the timing belt cover... This is probably besides the point, but to remove the crankcase pulley, you need: 1) pulley holder 2) 1/2" drive breaker bar to hold the pulley holder (36" in length) 3) 3/4" drive breaker bar to turn the pulley bolt (36" in length) 4) 19mm socket for the pulley bolt 5) 24" of 3/4" driver extension 6) scissor jack (OEM Honda Equipement from your trunk) Once you have all this equipment set up, it will take a minimum of pressure to loosen the crankcase pulley bolt. I loosened mine by barely stepping on the breaker bar. The bolt must be re-tightened to 185 ft-lbs, and should NOT be done with an impact driver (per Honda service manual instruction). I say it might be besides the point since it sounds like you have some other stuff going on there. Edit: pulley holder -$99 online 36" long, 1/2" drive, breaker bar -$40 at NAPA 36" long, 3/4" drive, breaker bar -$90 at NAPA 19mm Craftsman socket -$7 at Sears 24" of 3/4" driver extension -$80 at NAPA Honda jack -Free with car Knowing I can remove my crankcase pulley any time I want (without causing any damage) -Priceless Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

James Matteu Posted February 18, 2008 Share Posted February 18, 2008 I get that your feeling the pipes for temp, but have you run the motor with the radiotor cap off to see if your getting pressure? Dumb question: have you flushed? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

James Matteu Posted February 18, 2008 Share Posted February 18, 2008 That is possible, happened on my CRX, but it was upside-down and the system held air since the bleed port was on the wrong side. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rocknskulls Posted February 18, 2008 Share Posted February 18, 2008 did you try bleeding the system as air can in the line can cause this. when you did the flush was it dirty or clogged any? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hatch92 Posted February 18, 2008 Share Posted February 18, 2008 i would try to flip the thrmo over and see if that works if not then you have a plug somewhere. and it's gonna be a big plug. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

delsol209 Posted February 19, 2008 Share Posted February 19, 2008 yea thats the correct way i mean the best bet for you is to do a pressure test and see if you have pressure you will find out that way Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
