Note of thanks ...
I know MarinaBrian views threads from time to time so I’d like to say thanks for the tip of removing the crankshaft pulley bolt using the starter. Used my 3/4" socket and bar against the subframe.
The bolt had defeated my air driven impact driver (610nm) and my neighbour’s electric one (unknown nm), but with a single flick of the ignition, and a scary clunk, I was then able to remove the bolt by hand. Brilliant tip, even if very scary. Keep well |

Might have to use this method, as my DeWalt bought especially for this doesn't touch it .

Tried this as a last resort after battery impact gun and air impact gun failed, it didn't work for me so had to get hot spanner on it almost cherry red then it came without resistance

Got both the locking tool and impact socket.
Last time we tried using these after failing with the Dewalt , with two of us swinging on it we actually snapped off a 1/2 drive end from the Breaker bar.. Will try again this this year Chris

its the small one , i've modded it with a tighter locator tube and it fits nice and snug, certainly enough to break the 1/2 inch square
