Is the bolt oem, if so it should fit. Maybe you were given the wrong crank pulley bolt.

They look to be the same bolts as the ones that I used. Could you post a pic of your pulley. Who did you purchase it from?

Here is the picture of the pulley the pulley is a 185mm ASP from Jerry



I figerd it out, you must remove the six bolts that are holding down the pulley to the dampener
the dampeners hole is a bit larger then the pulleys hole (idk why it would) be but it fit like a charm.

Thanks agaiin
I am getting my remote tune in 2 hours Then gonna go burn some tires LoL

Now How the hell am I going to tighten this bolt with out the Special tool LOL

Please tell me you didn't take the pulley apart.......

The bolt fits perfectly in the hole. Twist it a little and it goes right in. Its designed that way....

...you aren't supposed to take them apart. they are specially balanced and IIRC, taking them apart messes this up

I did 185MM install twice without any issues, but it was a PAI... Had previous experience with ASP on M111K.

What's this about the bolt not fitting??? People when a bolt seems to not fit you don't take apart your pulley. Call Eurocharged for further instructions or a new bolt...
