Help. I started replacing the timing belt and all the oil seals, but everything stopped at the crankshaft oil seal. The crankshaft pulley was removed, and then the gear, which should be removed by hand, cannot be removed with either 2 or 4 hands. I was very scared to try with a screwdriver or something similar, because... You can break off the sprocket teeth that are read by the crankshaft position sensor. Is there any kind of puller?
Of course, there are holes for the bolts. Fill with wd-40, let it acidify, there is rust and dirt on the key. Place a piece of wood on the gear and tap it with a hammer. The main thing is not to be afraid.) Screw in the long bolts and pull out the bolts. I have a more serious problem. I can’t remove the camshaft pulley. The bolt won’t unscrew. I almost broke the head of this bolt, I tried with a pipe, I hit the key with a hammer. In short, I changed all the seals except the camshaft. So now it’s sweating for me

on some gears there are no holes for the bolts, in such cases I drill, then cut the thread, and then I have a puller and a gear in my hands
There are no holes for bolts. I tried to help you slowly with the answer, but I only bent one tooth, it seems fine so far. But it still needs to be changed. As for drilling, this is an option. Just drill how much (hole length?).
Yes, even if it’s 8 mm, the bolt, if it’s bad, will break along the first thread. Two holes diametrically opposite 5 mm from the edge of the circle with an M8 thread should be enough to pull out the hippopotamus, oh, this is not an easy job.
Is balancing unimportant there?
How many times I changed it, so many times I bought a new gear. It is made of brittle metal and the sides break off easily. Easier than 300 rubles. to pay for a new one rather than spend half a day carefully picking out the old one.
The radius at which the holes are drilled is small. Well, the holes need to be drilled symmetrically.
Have you tried turning the starter? You can also try it with a pneumatic impact wrench at a tire shop.
Mikhych, it’s just a problem to get there with your head, and you’re a wrench!) And the starter in general is a shock to the engine. The key will hit an obstacle and the belt will be torn, or the teeth will be torn off the belt. In the best case.
Maybe the previous owner coated the threads of this bolt with red thread locker, so now just warm it up.
There are no barriers for patriots. It's very easy to get there. You need to remove the wheel at a tire shop (we'll ask for a wrench there). The method of unscrewing the bolt with the starter is based on resting the key against an obstacle.
