RE: [Need Help] Crank Pulley Removal

[Anthony Pelletier <vwnuts@yahoo.com>]

The easest way I have found to keep the crank from
turning requires a helper.  You have the helper put
the car in 5th and lock up the brakes.  Whella the
engine shouldn't move.  As far as removing the bolts
be careful you don't strip them.  If you do try using
a chisel and a hammer to hammer them counter
clockwise.  It sucks but it works.
