OK, stupid question.
How to remove the crank pulley? Is there a flywheel lock somewhere?
When reinstalling, what should the torque be?
thanks

Jim L. did mine with a short, high-torque impact air wrench. My cheapie didn't even budge it.
Don't eve n think about using a piece of pipe in the pulley holes or you will be buying a new pulley (don't ask me how I know!
).

Hmmm... the pipe routine did enter my mind. Guess I'll cross that one off my list. Have an impact wrench, but too big to fit.

nothing that a trip to Harbor Freight can't fix!

Impact,YES! Breaker bar w/3 ft pipe over the end,truck in gear,axles locked,part brake on,feet firmly planted against engine and air tunnel,pulling real hard...finding yourself on the ground outside the door on the ground,tool broken and blood pouring from under your hat, NO!
