Will a 2.0 1996 pulley fit my 97 2.2 vti ? does anyone know ?

I think they are different. Lings Honda lists them with different part numbers and aftermarket underdrive pulleys are different as well.

I'm sure I have seen someone say the end of the 2.0 and 2.2 crank is the same, I thought the difference was in the amount of ribs on the belt? 2.0 having less.

They are underdrive pulleys, not a direct substitution for the OEM crank pulley. Have a read and see what you think:

I had no issues with the underdrive pulley, took a couple of attempts to get the right size belts as they all need to be a lot shorter that I first thought. Taking the crank pulley off the car, well if it's bolted in still it can be the biggest pain ever, they do not like to come undone, do not reuse it, buy a new one from honda and do as it says in the manual and coat the threads in a little old engine oil and torque it up to the right specs.

If you can use a a rattle gun from somewhere it'll make the unbolting a lot easier, I used the tried and tested 5' bar on a 24" breaker bar and jumping on it, thought I'd snapped the bolt when it went

was like a gun shot and took a lot to do it.

I've read your not supposed to use a rattle gun on the crank pulley bolt - it can damage/fatigue the crank (shock/vabrations etc)

^^^^ Interesting, news to me but would be a lot easier to undo it. If it's not good it will be a struggle using a power bar etc and having to lock the engine somehow. I had one wheel on the ground, in 5th gear and brakes on to hold the engine, requires 2 people and really is hard to undo so don't set it aside as a quick job just in case

Hi I bought and under drive pulley from racebits a few weeks ago, I never heard anything, after a week of trying I got an email to say they don't stock it no more. They then issued a refund, they really need to update their site. I'm still on the lookout also.
