Front Pully Bolt

Post by Nigel »

Hi to the forum
Does any one know how to stop the crankshaft from rotating whilst trying to undo the front pully bolt of my AUTOMATIC td42.

Thanks in advance.

Regards
Nigel

the best way to remove the bolt is to get a big breaker bar and wedge it somewhere secore opposite to engine rotation and crank the engine a bit and it should crack the nut very easy to do if you understand me, use the startor motor to undo the nut.

OR--remove starter motor and put a wedge in flywheel to prevent rotation.

make sure you disconect the ignition system or injector pump to prevent the motor from firing.

Wouldn't it be safer to just use an impact wrench? Either an air or even one of those 12V electric types would remove the nut easily without risking damage to abything.
