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...

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.

Ok thanks..lol ok ill try out ur trick.

I got my crankshaft holding tool from napa. I think moroso makes one too.
