Harmonic Balancer - Crankshaft Pulley






USED Crankshaft Balancer Bolt
Tighten USED bolt 330 Nm (240 lb ft).

NEW Crankshaft Balancer Bolt
Tighten bolt, first pass 80 Nm (59 lb ft).
Tighten bolt, final pass 125 degrees using J 45059 .


Note:
* The crankshaft balancer installation and bolt tightening involves a four stage tightening process. The first pass ensures that the balancer is installed completely onto the crankshaft. The second, third, and fourth passes tighten the NEW bolt to the proper torque.
* The used crankshaft balancer bolt will be used ONLY during the first pass of the balancer installation procedure. Install a NEW bolt and tighten as described in the second, third and fourth passes of the balancer bolt tightening procedure.
