3.8 Harmonic Balancer Removal

This may be an odd question. Does the 3.8 harmonic balance bolt have left or right handed threads?

I have a pretty substantial breaker bar and was attempting to remove the normal counter clockwise but it didn't budge. Not wanting to break anything, I just thought I would ask. I am afraid to put an impact wrench on it.

Thanks!

Re: 3.8 Harmonic Balancer Removal

It is a right handed thread. An extra length of pipe did the trick!
