Removing harmonic balancer Chevy engine?
Remove the big center bolt that holds the harmonic balancer in place. If you have a complete hub puller assembly, it should screw into threaded holes. You'll need to work something out to protect the crankshaft threads when you tighten down the puller, just be aware that you don't want to destroy the crankshaft by messing up the threads. Tighten the puller and it should remove the harmonic balancer for you.

3.3 Buick century how to remove harmonic balancer?
1. Remove right front wheel. 2. Remove the cover from the inside fender. 3. Remove the small inspection cover between the engine and transaxle to expose the bottom of the flywheel. Jam a big screwdriver in a tooth of the flywheel and wedge it against the side of the opening and the floor or have an assistant hold it. 4. Use a big ratchet, at least a foot and half long and a cheater pipe another foot and a half to generate the 200+ foot pounds to remove the bolt from the center of the balancer. 5. Use a harmonic balancer puller to remove the balancer. A kit may not have the right size bolts to thread into the two holes in the balancer and you'll have to hunt for the right ones at a hardware store. They may be smaller in diameter than what come with the puller. Good luck. 2. The 3.8 Buick harmonic balancer requires a special puller. But, if you purchase three 4" long, 6mm diameter, 0.1 thread bolts and three heavy duty washers you can use a standard 3 hole puller to remove the balancer. The threaded holes for the 6mm bolts are about 2" inside the access opennings that are located on the face of the balancer. You will need to place the heavy duty washers on the 6mm bolts brfore they are used with the puller. The hex heads on the bolts are to small for the standard type puller and the washers will support the torque required to remove the balancer.

How do you install a harmonic balancer on a Buick Century?
I just use the crankshaft bolt to squeeze it back on. Just line up the groove in the harmonic balancer to the key in the crankshaft and slip it on until it's snug. Screw in the crankshaft bolt and tighten it down. The more you tighten, the more it will push the harmonic balancer. Warning! The crankshaft bolt must screw in freely at least five or six turns before you can begin tightening it. If the bolt ain't long enough then you will have to find one the same size, but just a little longer or you could face an unholy nightmare if you strip the bolt out. Use the long one if you have to to get the balancer pushed on a bit. Then, switch back to the original bolt and finish tightening. Good Luck and Good Day!
How do you take of a harmonic balancer on 94 jeep wrangler 6cyl?
some wut of an Answeryou take off the center bolt then you rent/buy a harmonic dampener puller/installer and screw the three 3/8 bolts into the harmonic balancers body and pull it off by turning the center stud wich seperates the balancer from the crankshaft. and follow the same steps for re-installation now you are pressing the new balancer on the crank make sure the keyway on the shaft and the pulley are aligned or its gonna cost you a new crankshaft and if you replace the crankshaft might as well re-build the engine.
