I have no impact gun capable of the ft-lbs to get my crank pulley bolt loose. (air, or snap-on electric, etc)
I have no 'chain wrench', which I have borrowed and used sometimes to hold crank pulleys from moving while I get the bolt loose in the center with another wrench.
Just my '91 Tsi AWD, and I need to get the crank pulley off.
If I remove the downpipe and the T-case and the lower flywheel/clutch shield/cover near the oil pan, is there a way I can hold the engine from spinning with a big screwdriver etc wedged in the flywheel teeth?
If all 4 wheels are on the ground, and someone is pressing hard on the brakes, is the AWD clutch pressure plate strong enough to hold the engine from spinning while the crank pulley bolt is broken loose?
