4EFTE removing harmonic damper


Recommended Posts

Hi all,

I'm currently working on my Glanza. I'm replacing the cam seals, and front main seals cause they're all leaking. The problem is that I can't get the harmonic damper off. Is there some kind of trick to this? There doesn't seem to be threaded holes in the pulley itself, so a puller won't work either, I don't think. Hitting it with a deadblow hammer doesn't work out either. A little piece of the inner edge broke right off on the first tap with the hammer. Any help is much appreciated!

Cheers nick.

 

Not if the harmonic dampener is not threaded.

 

I Just used a bearing puller. 

 

So works in a similar fashion, but it uses claws.

 

I did have issues with it cracking the edges, ultimately I drove a metal wedge between the pulley and the engine block...

Right. My pulley has 3 small, non-threaded holes surrounding the big center bolt.
