Hyundai Repair: crankshaft pulley bolt, air impact wrench, hyundai santa fe

Question
I have a hyundai santa fe 2002,2.7L engine,front wheel drive.I am replacing the crankshaft pulley and I am not sure if the bolt is right or left thread.Also what would be best to loosen it with.

Answer
The bolt is a standard right and thread-- so it loosens counter-clockwise and tightens clockwise.

The simplest way to remove is with an air impact wrench.  If you do not have one, you'll need to wedge a screwdriver or similar instrument in the torque converter teeth to keep the crankshaft from turning.
