You can prevent the crank from turning while you do up bolts by removing
a spark plug and feeding the end of a short stretch of rope into the
compression chamber; the piston will push up against it preventing the
crank from turning.  Probably best to choose a cylinder on its
compression/firing stroke, so the valves are closed.
