how dafuq do you remove it!?

i removed the one pulley above but then when trying to work on the lower one, the bolt started to round.
so i said fuck it.

we got them out without removing it.
it has to go back in without removing it.

Remove it crabs.. more than likely you'll be replacing that auto-tensioner at some point anyways.

6 point! I want to say it's lefty loosey like a traditional bolt...there's an additional 12mm bolt that holds it in position from below aside from the main 14MM one.

Also, if you rounded going the wrong way, hopefully you'll still have enough of a lip going the other way, just make sure to get a good grip on that baby. It's not the CP bolt thankfully so it's not torqued too hard. You actually already went on a bigger mission trying to remove individual pulleys from it on the car.

bad@$$vtec uninstalled the timing belt stuffs while i did the coolant stuffs.

I didnt pay attention to the timing belt stuffs.

my six point socket was too big for that small area. so, i did use a 12 pnt socket.

a 6 will grip. but I need smaller tools.

I remember you saying that a while ago, Yum. I programmed a firefox plugin to detect the smiley and play a gong sound automatically.

Justn, you figured out the spark plug gasket! Yay...or did you forget?
