crankshaft pulley

Hi there. Can anyone tell me how to stop the pullies from moving when i'm tightning the crank shaft pulley bolt, bearing in mind it's an automatic. cheers

You yelled?

Either remove the starter motor and jam a large screwdirver against the ring gear on the flywheel, or screw two bolts into the threaded holes in the pulley and wedge a bar across them to hold the pulley while tightening the centre bolt.

We can always rely on you mate

I use a pry bar wedged on the lugs on the pulley hub (assuming you've unbolted the front to pulleys) and rest the end on the steering box.

Its easy.
