A 1999 honda accord came into chi spare parts with a bad crankshaft pulley that would pull itself out of the engine at least every 100 kilometres. On closer inspection it was discovered the pulley was worn and had to be replaced.

With this article, we would take you through the repair process and you should be able to replace the crankshaft pulley and belts on any vehicle.

Tools needed:

Jack stands
10mm combination wrench
14 mm offset wrench
12mm sockets
21mm sockets

Steps

Remove the driver’s side tires and place on jack stands

Install the new crankshaft pulley make sure it aligns with the mark on the crankshaft rod then tighten with a 21mm socket

Make sure to tighten very well.

Next step would be to install the belts. This car uses a conventional V belt system which requires some components removed to get the belt off. Newer cars use a serpentine belt and have a belt adjuster on the engine that automatically tensions the belt. To install the belts on this car, you only need to get the alternator and power steering pump a bit loose so you can slide the belt over.

To get the alternator loose, you loosen the 10mm bolt beneath it all the way (do not remove) then slack the 14mm bolt on top of the alternator. The first belt passes through the alternator, compressor and the crankshaft pulley.
