put 2 of the flywheel bolts into the crank and put a bar accross them so you have something to lever against when removing pulley bolts

I'll give that a try tomorrow Lee, ta.

put a bit of wood in the block by the sump. spin the bottom pulley till the crank is jammed on the wood aswell then crack it off if u know what i mean

That might be the best option then.

I'll take it to Jamsport when I go over next time.

Cheers Phil.

probably the best thing then is put it in the back of your car then drive to the nearest place that has airtools. Will save you many an hour trying to undo it without breaking anything.

I don't have an airgun either :lol:

If not, refit it so you can lock the teeth.

Hi, not sure, haven't been that way since I was a Kid. Used to watch the Old Man stripp em. Can you get a 'G' cramp/clamp on the crank some where?

Lateral thinking to get the crank wedged.

Right, I have an engine on an engine stand, all that is in it is the crank, no pistons, no rods, the head and sump aren't on.

How can I 'lock' the crank so I can remove the bottom pulley to pull the crank out?

There's no big hex bit on it like you get on cams sometimes, so I can't work out a decent way :(
