If I remember right that would be the water pump so you probly need a new one.
You don't
No, but it is very hard to get loose.
Impact wrench. It's the ONLY thing that works.
Jack the motor up and take the motor mount loose on the top right side. Carefully lower the motor down until you see the crankshaft bolt on the bottom. Then take the center bolt off the crankshaft and then the pulley will come off.
If it does not drive anything it could be an idler pulley.
why not get a new motor why not get a new motor ANSWER by welding on the crankshaft while it is still assembled to the engine will most likely melt your seals thus causing you to replace the seals.
Your will have to loosen up the alternator, and take off the alternator belt from around the crankshaft pulley. To get the crankshaft pulley bolt off, you will have to use in impact wrench on it. Should be on the driver side of the car. Also it is a regular threaded bolt. The torque on it from the factory is around 115lb/ft. You will need a 17mm Impact socket and a good impact wrench. It will not break loose easily if there is rust on it like most that are 20 years old. Even with penetrating oil it will not be an easy job. Use care when working with the crankshaft pulley as it is old and will crack easily as well.
You will need an 8 foot breaker bar and a chain wrench to break the bolt loose. Secure the wrench with the breaker bar and pull down hard.
i removed it buy placeing a braker bar on the nut and wedgeing it against the frame of the car then click the starter one or two times that should break it loose
i have a 1998 Toyota tacoma pickup the pulley is loose on it does it free float or what
its loose tighten the pulley
If you mean the pulley and the shaftit is mounted on, Yes! A loose belt on the pulley doesn't necessarily mean anything but a need to adjust the belt tension.
