This is such a good idea. Who's next? A few decent builds in the works. Surely a group effort could be beneficial.

They had started before I got there at 12:30pm.
He drove home just after dark, so roughly 8pm.
This included a lunch break, snack breaks, lemonade breaks, and a bbq tea break.

Thanks for the reply Chris, lol that’s a pretty good effort pulling an engine and replacing it in just over 8 hours lol
I like the idea of a working bee on the zooks through the club ... sounds like it’s a pretty tight bunch of guys, can’t wait to meet yous all at the next meeting

Hi guys, what are your tips and tricks for getting the main crank pulley bolt undone?

My solutions are never right way to do anything.
But I used to jam something through the inspection hole to lock flywheel.
Then use a bar on the spanner.
I'm sure there is other dodgy ways, too.
Rattle gun may not fit in there?
I'll do a random internet search
