Hi All,

does anyone know which way the crank shaft pulley turns? I've been trying all day and the bloody thing seems like it doesn't want to turn and i dont wan to damage or thread the nut

So if im facing the car, do i turn the nut to the left or right ?

model is200 se

Any help appreciated

Cheers

anticlockwise when facing the nut... yup they are a pain to remove, my mechanic had to go away and take a rest

Thanks for the info mate.. I have also read that i might need to use a pulley to pull off the pulleynut, if so where do i get one?

thanks again

no you might need a puller to remove the pulley - if that is the case any motor factor will have them - or eBay

thanks for the reply guys

it will have thread lock on so it will be hard to turn - remember to put thread lock back on when reinstalling it!
