NEED HELP PLEASE. What is the part number for the crankshaft bolt so that I can replace it?
Just like everyone else, I had a #!$%ed up time trying to get the bolt free. I finally got the bolt off, but in the process i ruined it. The 1/2 breaker bar stress-cracked two corners of the bolt. Since the wall of the bolt head was cracked I had to use a socket after that. I found out that an impact socket works better for removing the bolt. I will never again use the 1/2" square inside of the bolt except for maybe advancing the engine.
