Everyone seems to miss out on the answer I was always given and have used
with much success. socket and breaker bar placed on nut sitting about 12
inches above the frame rail on the driver side. (pad frame with sweatshirt
or whatever). Disconnect the coil lead and crank the engine, takes two or
three times, but it works great.

Subject: Removing front pulley
Please can anybody advise me how to remove the large nut on the front
pulley?
The one on the end of the crank shaft. I want to remove the timing chain
cover but cannot remove the large nut. Has the nut got a anti-clockwise
thread
or clockwise thread? My Haines Manual doesn't help.
Thanks
Bob Coe
