Ok I need to get the CENTER crankshaft bolt out, but the past owner put loctite on the bolt. I'm using my crank tool with a breaker bar with a 3 foot pole on it and still cant break it loose. Its RH threads right?

RH thread is correct.

If you can't get it with breaker bar or impact, try some heat, but be careful how much and where you give the heat. You'll only want to heat the area around the bolt.
 
Ok busting out some heat. Thanks, will report back captain!



WOOT! Like 2 seconds of heat did it. Thanks!!!
