To remove the harmonic balancer on a 1998 Saturn SL2, you will need to use a harmonic balancer puller tool. First, remove any surrounding components that may impede access. Then, attach the puller to the balancer and use a wrench to slowly tighten the puller until the balancer comes off.

To replace the radio antenna on a 1998 Saturn sedan, first, ensure the vehicle is turned off. Carefully remove the plastic cover or trim around the antenna if applicable, and unscrew the antenna from its base, typically located on the roof. Disconnect the antenna cable from the radio, then connect the new antenna and secure it in place. Finally, replace any trim or covers and test the radio to ensure proper reception.
The main difference between a 1998 Saturn SL1 and SL2 lies in their engine configuration. The SL1 typically comes with a single overhead cam (SOHC) engine, while the SL2 is equipped with a dual overhead cam (DOHC) engine. This results in differences in power output and performance between the two models.
To fix the latch on a 1998 Saturn wagon hatchback, first, inspect the latch mechanism for debris or damage. If it’s stuck, try lubricating it with a silicone spray or WD-40. If the latch is broken, you may need to replace it by removing the interior trim panel to access the latch assembly. Ensure all connections are secure and test the latch after reassembly.
To recharge the AC in a 1998 Saturn SL2, locate the low-pressure service port, which is typically found on the larger diameter aluminum line running from the compressor to the evaporator. Remove the cap from the port and connect the refrigerant can or charging kit. Follow the instructions on the refrigerant can, and make sure to check the system pressure while charging to avoid overfilling. Always wear safety goggles and gloves during the process.

It is on the front of the motor, it will be the bottom most pully.
the harmonic balancer is the crankshaft pulley approx6 or 7 inch diameter lower pully center of engine the serp belt is driven by power pulley also have a retaining bolt in center
The crankshaft sensor on the 1998 NISSAN ALTIMA is located next to the radiator side of the harmonic balancer
Passenger side (front of the motor) in the middle. Just above the water pump. Must remove cover and harmonic balancer to install. Very difficult.
If the oil is leaking from the timing chain cover behind the Harmonic Balancer (main large double pulley the belts run on). After removing the belts you need to remove the Harmonic Balancer using a puller, not to damage it, and then replace the seal in the cover. Inspect the back side of the Harmonic Balancer. The seal only seals to the shoulder of the Harmonic Balancer not the back face. If the shoulder's surface is not smooth replace it or it will leak again. Apply some light grease on the seal and mating surface of the Harmonic Balancer and reinstall. Re-install the belts. If it is leaking around the edges of the cover the sealant may need replacing. Also check the condition of the sealant around the oil pan. Both would require removal/cleaning and re-sealing.

To change the front main seal on a 1998 Suburban, first, disconnect the negative battery cable and drain the engine oil. Remove the harmonic balancer by unbolting it and using a puller if necessary. Once the balancer is off, access the front main seal by removing the timing cover. Carefully pry out the old seal, clean the area, and install the new seal, ensuring it sits evenly before reassembling the timing cover and harmonic balancer. Finally, refill the engine with oil and reconnect the battery.
To remove a stuck bolt on the harmonic balancer of a 1998 Oldsmobile 88, first ensure you have the proper tools, including a socket wrench and possibly a breaker bar for extra leverage. Apply penetrating oil to the bolt and let it sit for a while to loosen rust or debris. If the bolt still won’t budge, use a heat source like a heat gun to expand the metal slightly, which may help break the bond. Finally, if necessary, consider using an impact wrench for additional force.
