When I got my L with ej22 with leaking waterpump it was a learning experience. It was leaking real good in my early trips and without that fan(the only one working then) it woulda been toasted. No big deal nor making tools isn't a big deal.

The short of this is I do have these tools to lend out but I need contact with someone at this board as to how it gets coordinated, if it does.

To describe the reasoning is that often the a/c coils are left in place so there is limited access. The strap wrench idea may work but these are harmonic balancers also. there was evidence of a pin driven between the inner and outer of mine to make that happen without destroying that membrane. Any flexibilty reduces torque or torque settings.

There are many designs but the holes were there in the inner pulley section. It required measuring the distance of the pins and that to a steel ring which was just short enough that a short socket with breaker/cheater went right into it. The idea is that the pin ring affair would like to spring out except the breaker is right against it to hold it in. Couple that to the pins being welded onto a ring that has a bar which is made to lay across the support points,underhood. Then its held in place while you work the breaker.

Hey whatever.
