- Sun Mar 06, 2011 5:54 am #242493 Haha...ok this is a stupid and noob question. I. Which u guys can laugh at me on this...so my question is which way do i take off the crank bolt? Do i go counter clockwise or clockwise? Since the motor turns counter clockwise. Hahaha...

- Sun Mar 06, 2011 6:17 am #242494 Its all good. Turn it counter clockwise, BUT you need to hold the crank pulley with something so youre not just turning everything at the same time. What worked for me is I took a chain: bolted one end to the crank pulley using one of the holes in it, and the other end to the front tow hook connected to the chassis.

- Sun Mar 06, 2011 6:56 am #242497 Ok thanks..lol ok ill try out ur trick.
