[Jim & Debbie Leyden]

That's what I love about this list...

The visuals keep me rolling on the floor!

Thanks Ian, I needed a good laugh after working 40 hours that weekend

This is what I did

Position the engine inside of a tire with the crank
pulley resting on the sidewall. In this case, the
tire's sidewall will provide some resistance against
the crank pulley. Use a 30mm socket, 1/2" wrench and
the longest pipe that you can find as a cheater bar.
It will take a few tries but if I did it, you can do
it. :)

I may have also stood on the pipe a few times. I
almost fell off and killed myself. Use your own
discretion. :)
