This is how I left my spare engine yesterday, crank pulley still firmly attached to the engine.
I took my SST for crank pulleys and sawed some threaded rods to attach at the SST

…and promptly screwed everything. Still, I got the crank bolt open, so this wasn’t useless sacrifice.

I slightly knocked the crank pulley with a plastic hammer and managed to slide it off the crank


First inspection – nothing special on top side

and nothing special on this side either

After some cleaning I found a part number (13470-16040). Seems that this pulley started its life as a regular pulley from AE92 and had nothing to do with supercharger.

Yeah, still here. Haven’t done much to MR2, the larger crank pulley is at the same place I left it after I had taken the photos in this article 😀 Been busy and also frustrated about the churning or grinding noise coming from somewhere behind the seats.
Just checking to make sure you’re alive .___.?
