Use tool No. J-8614-01, or a suitable pulley holding tool to remove the crankshaft pulley center bolt. Remove the crankshaft pulley.

righty tighty-lefty loosey, or RHT, right hand threads.

on the 3.2/3.5L v6 the center bolts comes off.
and this

Install the crankshaft pulley and tighten the pulley bolt to 123 ft. lbs. (167 Nm).

if car is M/T we use 5th gear, to remove crank bolts
if car is A/T this is a pain, thus the tool above.
how to lock any A/T crank to achieve this is tricky.

show a nice list of ways, some work others dont.
depends on exact engine in question, not stated once.
fly wheel lock.
DIY tool on front bolts.


i usually just make my own tool, with angle iron
some use a chain wrench, (making a nice ugly mess)
Install the crankshaft pulley and tighten the pulley bolt to 123 ft. lbs.


so post back with engine size and trans type. so we can really help
above is wild guessing and to show tip of ice berg, timing belt issues, ever done one before on this engine? T belt??????

I have a 2002 toyota prius that will not start only code is p3030 what can I do to fix this I have cleard the code and as soon as I trun the key on it pops right back up

Error Code: P3030
Description: Disconnection between battery and ECU.

The battery ECU monitors a voltage of the battery blocks to detect an open malfunction in internal battery voltage sensor circuits of the battery ECU and the wire harness between each battery block and battery ECU. If a voltage at one of the battery blocks is below a standard level or of all the battery blocks is within a specified range, the battery ECU judges that there is an open in the internal sensor circuit(s) or wire harness. The battery ECU then illuminates the MIL and sets a DTC (Diagnostic Trouble Code).
Trouble Area:
- Junction Block Assembly (Bus Bar Module).
- Frame wire number 2, (Bus Bar and wire harness).
- Battery ECU.
