.

be prepared for HELL. those bolts are a pain to get off. just save yourself the trouble and buy a big *** impact gun or take it to a shop to zap the bolt off and then drive it back home with it finger tight. or you can take the low buck approach and hack off the timing cover.

Or just lock a big flathead screwdriver on the flywheel and use a breaker bar on the rachet and spray some WD40 on the bolt and it let it soak for a bit. took mine off last night in 5 mins.

I used a small crowbar type thing instead of the screw driver. However I now use the tool.

I like the threads where they show pictures of what happened when they broke their transmission housing when using the "screwdriver in the flywheel" method. That gotta SUCK!

What tool do they make for the 4th gen ones?

BTW: Since there never was a decisive answer on the direction it turns, it is conventional thread.
