A good impact wrench with proper socket will loosen that bolt. Mark it before removal so you can get it back where it was. There is also an o ring behind that pulley.

Dennis,
From my phone.

So I'm in the middle of the odyssey to remove the oil pump and to get to
the thing I have to take off the crank pulley... Ha ha, Bentley joke...3149
tool?!

Ha ha trying to use an impact on that 258 foot pound bolt...

Ok guys...not trying to work harder, but smarter...and you all are my
brains at the moment...

What have you all used? I have tons of clearance because I've taken
everything out of the way...

Thanks!
