Crankshaft Pulley Bolt

While changing the camshaft seal, I broke the Crankshaft pulley bolt. The esay out removed half the bolt and left the other half behind.

As a last resort i was thinking of treading the unthreaded part of the hole in the crankshaft pulley and using a shorter bolt.

Anyone any other Ideas.

You can't drill the other half of the bolt out?

Re: Crankshaft Pulley Bolt

That was an awesome experience. Nothing like replacing the water pump and the very last turn before being completely done, SNAP! I couldn't tap or drill that dnag thing out. I replaced the entire crank after pulling the engine. Next time, I'd merely place a weld bead to hold on the pully. Total cost to replace was 2G, (performance parts were dropped in )

You have to go to a tool dealer and purchase a carbide tipped steel drill. It is the only drill that will drill out a broken eazy out.
