So, pulled this engine out of this RSX. Did a timing chain tensioner and the clutch.
Threw the engine back in and it won't start. Turns over, getting fuel and spark (coils are warm) and clearly air and will not start. So clearly the damn thing jumped timing.
So, I have tool to hold the crank pulley. I have that connected to a 1/2" breaker bar and angled so its forced to push against the ground. I have done the whole, run 2 extensions out to a breaker bar and sit the extensions on jack stand for a pivot point. I have the breaker bar thats connected to extensions, extended with 3 additional "cheater" bars. About 8 feet total of leverage.
WHAT THE FAWK. This SOB won't budge. I've hit it with penetrating lube, and heated it up with my oxy acetylene torch and still nothing.
I've broke one 1/2 inch extension, twisted and snapped and twisted off a 1/2 to 3/8 Snap-On Reducer.
STILL NOT OFF.
I need ideas. I'm about to call a mobile semi truck tire changer guy and bring his 1" impact and rip this sucker off. F*** this car.

Ideas. Help. Whatever. Just laugh if I care. I'm gonna just kick it until it cooperates.
