dude, i just tried this myself on a 1993 4cyl. Camry and went by all the step the repair manual says to do. seriously take my advice and just let a mechanic shop do it for you. if you do it yourself and try to get the bolt off the pulley, your going to just make the timing belt skip around in there and mess up the timing of the engine. i had the intake cam held down with a wrench like instructed to while trying to loosen the bolt on the pulley. that is when the gear just jumped the timing belt inside. You'll have to do so much more harder of stuff to get the whole engine in time again. its a hard fix because the bolt is lock-tighted down Alot! I'm having a mechanic come to my house today to fix the whole shabang and its gonna prob be a huge shabang on my wallet since i tried to do it myself! just having a mechanic do it for you shouldn't be over 200$ id imagine. I'd pay it in a heart beat! hope this helped!

DO NOT attempt to loosen the harmonic balancer bolt by holding the camshaft. You will destroy the timing belt. You have to lock the flywheel with a pry bar or heavy screwdriver then loosen the harmonic balancer bolt.

By now your fan belts should be off then get out your harmonic balance puller. DO NOT use a three jaw puller as you will destroy the harmonic balancer.

You can rent a harmonic balancer puller at many auto parts stores or they are fairly inexpensive to buy.
