13. Remove crankshaft pulley and vibration damper using Crankshaft Damper Remover T58P-6316-D and Vibration Damper Remover Adapter T82L-6316-B.

NOTE:
- If the vibration damper is being replaced, check if the original vibration damper has balance pins installed. If so, new balance pins (EOSZ-6A328-A or equivalent) must be installed on the new vibration damper in the same position as the original vibration damper. The pulley (new or original) must also be installed in the same relative position as originally installed.
- If the crankshaft vibration damper and pulley have to be separated, mark the damper and pulley so that they may be reassembled in the same relative position. This is important, because the damper and pulley are initially balanced as a unit.
