Default Timing Belt change issues

Im changing the timing belt on my 97' Tiburon (1.8L) and have run into an issue early on[:@]. I have to remove crankshaft pully, I do not have an impact wrench, and have been looking into jamming the flywheel so the the crankshaft cannot rotate. I'm not particularly sure where the flywheele cover is, my chilton isn't very specific about the location, and then how to remove it.

Any info would be much appriciated,I'm rather new at this so as much detail possible would be best.
Thanks in advance

Default RE: Timing Belt change issues

The flywheel is at the rear of the motor and is between the motor and the tranny. A clutch, if manual or a torque converter is bolted to it. Somwhere on the bell housing that houses the flywheel and clutch will be a small inspection cover that will allow you to get to a part of the fly wheel. On some cars on the bottom half of the bell housing is a dust cover, either metal or plastic. Removing that will gain access to the fly wheel. You'd be better off borrowing an electric impact wrench or renting one. Will make the job a lot easier
