ok belt is off - i removed tensioner - bingo bango - belt off.

now for the hard part - how to get crank gear off - very little room behind it and engine case : (( and it is wedged on by destroyed and malformed keyway - see last pic.

and it appears to me that the shop that did my timing belt replacement may have messed up my timing - see wthite dots on pass side match up but drivers side is at least one tooth off.

Jim, If the suby ran O.K. after the shop installed a new 'T'-belt then it was installed with the correct timing alignment! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif) If it's off a tooth it won't run at all!

By-the-way why are you replacing the belt drive gear? If the key is booger'd up why not just knock it out and replace it only? (IMG:style_emoticons/default/idea.gif)

i am pretty sure the key keeps the pulley and the gear orientated.

i would love to grind out the pulley part of the key and cut the new one in half and just use it to hold the pulley orientated - but how can i grind out the small piece of keyway i want removed ??

the old mangled key destroyed the pulley's inner diameter - like it did the first time - but this time the key was totally unuable.
