[NoVa-Corvairs] Need a harmonic balancer puller tool!

Well, yeah, it wasnt the HB...and my crankshaft is not broken (though it 
is retarded).   Turns out my gas gauge has gone south at the same time as 
my battery, making for a baffling, but ultimately minor set of repairs. 
Back on the road with the yellow vert....parked downstairs in the basement 
right now here at 2121 Penn!

I thought broken crank on the turnover issue, but I guess it was badd 
battery and suspect connectors, now cleaned up.

Curt's suggestion of the two bolts works, just be careful to tighten 
them evenly so it doesn't cock the HB to one side.  Hate to suggest 
it, tho, your symptoms sound like a broken crank.
