Got the timing belt off and then went to remove the camshaft sprocket to get to the water pump. But how to hold the camshaft sprocket while trying to loosen the bolt? I don't have air tools. I thought about jamming a wrench or something into the "spokes" of the sprocket. But the bolt was tight, and I didn't want to damage the sprocket.

One thread suggested loosening the bolt while the old timing belt is still on. The old belt is off now, but I'll put it back on if you think it will hold the sprocket.

Any other ideas????
