See...lol. I'm not completely out of my mind....

 

I may need to revisit because mine being a SC, it may be different?

 

Do you have either dots or a line mark on the face of the balancer?

 

If I need a pipe not a problem.

 

Definitely no keyway there! So you passed the Saturday Morning Observation Test! LOL

It is a little unusual that the harmonic balancer is not specifically aligned, but hey this is Jaguar, so we shouldn't be surprised.

 

I have to go and do some lawn mowing, will check back later.

 

Wow.. I passed something...
thanks guys.
Ill look again for any alignment marks.
Maybe that's why others said use a bolt or pry bar to hold the flywheel?

 

Come on the grass will still be there tonight!
This is more important!

 

Not if Mint Sauce gets to it... lol

 

This is direct from Blackonyx's detailed removal/install and it does not specify like all the other instructions.

MM. Refit crankshaft pulley:

1) As when removing the pulley you need to keep the crankshaft from rotating. I used pry bar between the drive plate and torque converter with the handles supported with a jack to keep it from moving.

2) Place some form of shield behind the radiator to protect it

5) Remove front crankshaft seal protector

6) Put a good amount of grease on crankshaft seal

7) Install a new o-ring on the pulley. Apply some grease to the o-ring.

8) Install the crankshaft pulley

9) Install the split lock ring on to the crankshaft

10) Install the new crankshaft pulley bolt

11) Make sure that the crankshaft setting tool is removed from the torque converter.

12) Tighten the crankshaft pulley bolt (24mm 6 point socket (15/16" will also work)) to 364-386 Nm

13) Remove your method of securing crank.

14) Reinstall the two covers on the torque converter housing.

 

Morning HH
I read that too... I'm not seeing much of anything there expect the metal the the tool was locked into... hell I try it.
I also don't see the flywheel teeth as others have mentioned for the pry bar.
I should buy a flashlight these matches are burning my fingers!

 

No markings..

everything is out of order. ..

 

The flywheel teeth are on the back of the motor on the flywheel....for your starter to start the car....silly boy... ...do I have to have Mint Sauce show you this...lol

 

I would not recommend using the flywheel teeth to hold the crankshaft, once the harmonic balancer has "grabbed" the tapered collet you will be able to use the large crankshaft holding tool to tighten the crank bolt.

Back to the mowing and leaf burning.........................

 

My poor buddy everyone gives him a hard time especially store managers!

I found the access to the flywheel and I see the back side of the studs to the converter.. Just couldn't get a pry bar or anythingelse to hold or stay in place, I even tried using a jack.. after a few times back and forth I gave myself and break and started burning branches also...

The flywheel teeth are on the back of the motor on the flywheel....for your starter to start the car..
..
Also i wouldn't of used the flywheel teeth to hold the crankshaft. It was something I read that others have done....
That's why I came to you guys...

Thanks. HH
