Asked by Dale Apr 17, 2012 at 02:06 PM about the 2002 Chevrolet Camaro Coupe RWD

Question type: Maintenance & Repair

I've got a 3.8l V6 Camaro and I'm having trouble taking off the idler pulley. I've already got the bolt out but the pulley is still stuck
on there. Wondering if i had missed anything in the process?

u need to get a puller usually to take them off goto lordco or napa they should have a gear puller or something along those lines to use

if you're trying to get the bolt out of the pulley itself ,it's a reverse tread,but it's best to replace the tenioner as a unit.
