Not a problem. Just set up your socket and breaker bar like I described before, and then use the starter motor to turn the engine. The starter should have enough strength to both turn the engine and break that bolt loose, especially since the spark plugs are out and it won't have to fight the engine's compression anymore.

just make absolutely sure you have it in proper direction to loosen the bolt.. the engine is gonna spin one way and the bar will be wedged on either the ground or a part of the frame/suspension.. when you bump the engine over it will loosen the crank bolt, all it takes is a little bump and it will be loose....
you definetely dont wanna be anywhere near the bar, definetely not holding it.. just be patient and if it falls off put it back on and start over..
take your time and think about it, be extremely careful or just use an air tool..

sorry for asking so many questions ok let's get the straight to remove the large bolt I can position a breaker bar in the direction to remove the bolt. I can place it on the frame so I wouldn't get hurt so after putting it in place I guess that I give the engine a bumb which I think means to put the key in the ignition and give it a quick crank? Please correct meComment

Just hit the starter real quick and check the bolt to see if it's loose. Try again if it's still tight.Comment

You can bump the starter by shorting out the connector with a red cap on it at the passenger wheel well.Originally posted by Nathan in MI View PostComment

Nathan, Is the Red CV in the photo bucket picture a Fire Chief's car ? It does not look like the factory red. Nice looking.Originally posted by Nathan in MI View PostCool! Be sure to let us know if we can be of any further assistance with the rest of your project.
