If you have a welder and enough of the bolt is sticking out you can weld another bolt or nut to it to get the old one out and replace it with anything that will screw in with the same thread or you can use vise grips to get out the old one for both fixes it depends on how much of the bolt is still there did the head just break off or is it flush with engine cover if it's flush you need to raise up the motor and use a reverse drill bit (left hand ) and a tap and a propane torch and liquid wrench to loosen and back it out you may be able to just take out the inner fender to gain axcess with the tire off ///also you could still use a nut to weld it to the bolt it will take a little bit of time keep welding onto the broken bolt first don't worry the engine cover is aluminum and the weld will on stick to the bolt weld out enough to be able to fit a nut over the weld file it down if you have to fit your nut then weld the nut on to the welded exstension you just made it would be better to use a bigger nut and just keep welding it till its fully filled this will give you much more strength in it to turn out the bolt especially if you cross treaded it and that's why it broke and if that's the case you will have to retap that bolt hole for the thread to accept the new bolt good luck stephen you can rent a welder if you need to

SOURCE: Crank Pully
You may need to get a special crank pulley tool for Honda/Acura. Or you can use an old crank pulley belt and hold it down with a small monkey wrench or something. Then crack the nut counter-clock wise.

I didn't see at first that your a woman so you're gonna need a dude with real strong hands for the vise grips if there's enough of the bolt sticking out and a 6 pack will help please im not being a sexist here those vise grip teeth need to get very deep into the bolt so it locks in and doesn't just strip away the remaning bolt don't waste your money on this manual answer from grace it's exactly what you don't need it won't tell you anything ok I'm a taxi mechanic in nyc.with 50 years experience in all phases of the automobile and I know what I'm talking about here and it's your only chance with out having to get another front engine cover ok Denise good luck Stephen
