which way do you turn the nut on the crankshaft to get the nut off. I have the flywheel stoped with a srewdriver ,but which way do you dorn the crankshaft to get that nut off?

unless honda decided that they wanted to make the only inverse screw in the entire world, its leftey-loosey and rightey-tightey to get the nut off. its gonna be a bitch though.

this is going to sound stupid but which way do you turn it, towards the front or the rear of the car

If you have your socket wrench on it, and its to the top(socket handle is up high), turn to the right to tighten and to the left to loosen.

if ur looking at it from the driver side fender, turn counter-clockwise, toward the front of the car... like tmaxxtim said. every other nut and bolt on the car will be the same way.

i could have sworn when we changed the timing belt it reverse threaded and its torqued down pretty good. we tried using a impact wrench and it wouldnt loosen it up but a mechanic told os to put a breaker bar on the crank and have it secured against the body and turn the igniton to turn the starter, which had enough tourque to break it loose, im reffering to the bolt on the crank pulley inside the stop sign shaped opening

omg seriously? that might be why i could never get it off

yeah we tried everything then my stepdad bought a new impact wrench and still didnt do anything so we asked a mechanic at a local garage and he told us to use the torque of the starter which works everytime (but i asked him and it wasnt reverse treaded sorry i thought it was) my engine is a 91 f22a4 with a auto trans
