Removing Crank Pulley Bolt on VTS

[Xplodee]

Im trying to remove the crank pulley to change the oil seal but not having much luck.

I have tried fitting two bolts and using a lever to hold it in place but there is not enough room as the socket appears to take up too much room.

Any help would be greatly appreciated :y:

remove TDC sensor, wedge flywheel with a screwdriver and get a fat mate to lean on a breaker bar on the crank bolt.

or get an impact gun.

DO NOT rely on any of the timing pins to lock the engine for this purpose.

Sounds like a plan, Could this damage the flywheel ?

no, its quite tough.

Not any more than using a shearable timing pin through the flywheel.

It'll be fine if you lock the flywheel with a 6mm drill or allen key and use an impact.

With a bar you'll probably need to use a screwdriver.
