I'm doing the water pump /timing belt on my 1995 Caravan 3.0. I can't seem to get the nut loose on the crank end to get the damper off. Is it a righty/tightie or reverse thread? I would not want to think I've been tightening it. I'm on it with my impact wrench but it isn't moving

arrrggh

Thanks

Its right tighten and left to loosen. You may need to use the engine to loosen the bolt with a breaker bar. The engine will spin clockwise and the bolt comes off counter clockwise.

 

Thanks Master Tech....

I looked it up and there is over a 100 lbs of torque on it , could be my lil lite assed impact just won't cut the mustard. I'll get a chain wrench to hold the pulley in the morning and put the breaker bar on it

Thanks again
