Pulling on the outside edge with a conventional two-jaw or three-jaw puller can place force through this rubber section and may damage the harmonic balancer.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis dedicated EcoBlue pulley tool engages the pulley at the correct points and applies controlled force while the pulley is drawn from the crankshaft.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eHow Do You Remove a Ford Ranger EcoBlue Crank Pulley?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe engine must first be prepared and locked in accordance with the applicable Ford workshop procedure. The dedicated removal tool is then attached to the correct mounting points on the crankshaft pulley.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eLubricate the puller’s thrust screw and tighten it progressively while checking that the tool remains correctly seated. This draws the crank pulley from the crankshaft without pulling against the bonded outer section.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDo not lever behind the pulley, strike the pulley or attach an ordinary puller to its outside edge. The applicable Ford workshop instructions should always be followed for engine locking, fastener removal, pulley installation and final tightening.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eCommon Ford EcoBlue Crank Pulley Questions\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eWhat tool removes the crank pulley from a Ford Ranger 2.0L EcoBlue?\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA dedicated Ford EcoBlue vibration damper puller equivalent to \u003cstrong\u003eFord special tool 303-1657\u003c\/strong\u003e should be used.
