Title: Crankshaft pulley S2/3 Post by: Wangler on 10 March, 2024, 11:25:10 AM I'm trying to remove the crankshaft pulley and the bolt is clearly very tight. Before I use more force could someone please tell me if the thread is a normal right hand thread - that is to say counter-clockwise to undo. The engine is out of the car.
