 |
|
My Haynes manual hasnt arrived yet but I thought I would make a start on removing stuff so I can change my head gaskets. First job and first hurdle!!
I cant shift the crank pully nut. Is it a LH thread or something silly? Whats the best way of locking the crankshaft. The engine is still in the bus at the moment.
Cheers. |

Done it now! Must have been feeling weak and feeble last night!
I put the bus in gear, put on the handbrake and shocked the bolt off. easy! |

lock the flywheel by jamming the cast iron doube sided 12V / 6V VW flywheel lock took into the starter recess on a Subaru engine. It doesn't fir perfectly, but it does work. Hope that helps.
