I am in the middle of changing out the pulleys on my car and i'm having some trouble with the crankshaft pulley. I cant seem to get the main crankshaft bolt out without cranking the engine. I can turn it but the crankshaft turns and it just wont come loose. THe instructions say to put it in reverse or 1st gear. I have an AOD but i went ahead and put it in first anyway. no help. Does anybody know what to do? all help is appreciated.
