Counterclockwise.
counter clockwise
You turn it counter clockwise to loosen.
loosen the center bolt and get your self a harmonic balancer puller just make sure you loosen the center bolt enough but not too much but you need a balancer puller.
yes
Remove belt,4 pulley bolts and remove pulley. Remove harmonic balancer bolt and washer,reinstall bolt with out washer,just in about half way.You will need a harmonic balancer puller.These are not very expensive about $20.00 or borrow one from somebody.You just thread the correct included bolts into the balancer where you removed the pulley bolts and will be pushing on the reinstalled balancer bolt.The balancer should clear the bolt head without the washer.This is so you don't damage the threads in the crankshaft.
The flywheel has to be held in place by a holding tool, Remove the mounting bolt, then use a balancer remover to pull the harmonic balancer.

The crankshaft pulley unbolts from the harmonic balancer. The harmonic balancer can be removed from the crankshaft with a 3 bolt puller.
first remove serpintine? fan belt then remove large bolt in middle of harmonic balance. this bolt usually has left hand thread next with a harmonic pulley ,puller, remove harmonic balancer.when removing this, there is a key in the balancer and shaft if a new key did not come with new balancer,make sure not to loose the old one install new balancer with key.use the bolt to pull balancer up tight where it needs to be and use proper torque on bolt
Start by removing the right front tire and support the vehicle with a jack stand. Then remove lower portion of the splash guard near the harmonic balancer. Remove all drive belts. First remove the A/C alternator belt. Loosen the 14mm bolt at the front of the belt tensioner and then loosen the tensioner bolt (it is the one that's sticking straight up, you use a 14mm socket on it.). The power steering adjuster bolt will be accessed from the bottom near the power steering pump. It has a 12mm bolt head on it. You will break the jamb bolt loose first and then loosen the adjusting bolt. Remove belts. Then remove harmonic balancer bolt (19mm). If the harmonic balancer will not slide off the crankshaft then use a two finger gear puller. Place the harmonic balancer bolt back in the crankshaft but do not tighten it. Leave it about a half inch from being all the way in. Next place the puller on to the harmonic balancer. (one finger on each side securely press into the belt groove.) The center puller bolt will rest against the harmonic balancer bolt head. Tighten the puller bolt and make sure the harmonice balancer bolt does not turn. The balancer should come off at this point.
first check to see in which direction the harmonic balancer moves when car runs normally. check by just barely hitting the ignition switch n have someone else watch it. the bolt in the center of the harmonic balancer should move in the opposite direction in order to be unscrewed. use sturdy wrench (i.e. impact wrench) and use a pole or anything to extend the length of the the wrench. prop it in on the bolt and leave the handle propped against the floor so it wont be able to move and then crank the ignition in short bursts about 2 to 3 times and the power of the starter should be enough to get the bolt loose. i tried this and it worked for me but i have heard there is a possibility that the flywheel can be damaged.
