FYI: A normal harmonic pulley removal tool will work. Those two small holes have M6 x 1.25 pitch threads. A pair of M6 x 1.25 x 60mm graded bolts with some washers can be turned into the holes until they are just shy of protruding on the other side. The normal tool will apply enough force to remove the pulley. I just had to do that on my car and it worked quite well. Of course, all of the harmonic pulley tools come with M7 x 1.00 bolts which means none of those that I have tried will work on this engine. I had a hard time finding the correct bolts because they are an uncommon thread. I actually had to make them by rethreading some other bolts. Fortunately, I have taps and dies for just about any thread known to man. LOL If this helps anyone to not have a headache because some engineer used a goofy thread then I am happy to have been of some help. Oh. There is an alternative. It is possible to run a different tap into the holes and cut the threads for a more common pitch. That would be my last resort, though.

How do you take out out the bolts next to the Harmonic Balancer to take out the Belts ? I had a 2001 Toyota Camry 2.2 Liter . I tried taking them bolts out to loosen the bolts but it looks like I have to take more bolts more than two ? I loosen one bolts already .But how many bolts should I take out to loosen the belts .?

Normally, the pulley-balancer just comes out, you don't need a puller. I use an impact tool to remove the nut. I have a 12-volt impact wrench from Harbor Freight, they sell it for use breaking wheel nuts loose, about $25, cheaper with the coupons.. It's kind of a weird tool, but it works. You can also get a 120 volt AC corded impact tool or a cordless. But the little 12 volt has worked even for spindle nuts. Good luck!

I am doing this job right now. I got the balancer bolt off by using a long breaker bar with the handle end touching the ground and turned the engine very slightly with spark plug ht leads removed as you dont want the engine to start. this loosens the bolt. to remove the balancer i used a puller. I dont think the balancer bolt torque is that important as it becomes tight from the engine rotation. the job is quite straight forward but does require alot of rolling about on the ground if all you have is a car jack.

I mean, i can barely see light between the belt . makes no sense, i cant seem to tighten it down without it being too close.

I was watching another video of yours and did the crankshaft and camshaft seals. I put a new timing belt on, put the lower timing cover on, and put tension on the belt. Both the crankshaft sprocket and camshaft sprocket are at TDC. When I put the balancer back on and hit it it with my impact wrench to drive the crank bolt back to spec, the timing has changed. The camshaft sprocket is still at TDC but the mark on the balancer is way over clockwise about 20 degrees. When I rotate the engine 2 times to verify both are on time at TDC, the mark for TDC on the balancer is way off. Is it possible the balancer is slipping? It's not possible to see the crankshaft sprocket with the timing cover on.

If this pulley is bad will it cause squealing as well? Alternator was bad. I replaced and inspected ac and power steering pulleys and they're working. Car still squealing and running like alternator is bad. Why I'm guessing crank pulley isn't spinning properly. Also, pulleys are in line and I don't see any belt vibration or shifting. Thanks!!

What a hassle! Looks way too complicated for a DIYer. Glad I'm paying my mechanic to do this job. I'm sure mechanics hate doing this because it's a lot of work. The video guy makes it look so simple like it takes 9 minutes. Gladly pay $500 labor to have someone do this that has done many already. My original harmonic balancer lasted 298,000 miles on my 2000 Camry. Great car and doubled the lifespan of the pulley due to excellent driving technique plus Toyota quality.

Pulley bolt torque at 80 ft-lbs (108 N-m). There are 2 SSTs around $170 needed to do it. Or the cylinder rope method. I recommend the 2*4 method using the puller bolts. Cheap and safe. /watch?v=YRm7BViRsoQ
