[Shotimes] Crankshaft Pulley bolt

[Devin Fisher]

I got it out with ~250lbs of human, a six foot cheater bar and a sledge
hammer.

I and many others that have been around for a while have found that 
the use of starter power is by far the easiest way to remove the 
crank balancer bolt.  Unless you have a really good and strong impact 
this is the way to go.

If you are worried about rounding this bolt more than it is, use 
a bunch of Super Glue Gell between the socket and the bolt.  Let 
it dry for several hours.  Then crank the motor with the DIS plugs 
disconnected.

Use #16 ga. wire to hold the wrench in place.  When you have this 
bolt out you should be able to use torch heat to get the bolt out 
of the socket.
