First time post.
I'm trying to change the timing belt a WA festiva and I can't get the main bolt on the crankshaft undone. Have the engine in gear to stop the crankshaft turning but no joy so far. Just checking to make sure this wasn't a left hand thread before I up the anti with a big cheater bar. Any experience with this would be appreciated |
