Default Re: Timing w/o handcrank

Pushing the car in high gear works well if you don't have the right tool. I bought a quality 1 3/8" combination wrench at the local used tool store, then heated the box end of the shaft to put a couple of sharp bends in it to clear the pulley. This also works great to loosen the crank nut. Just install the wrench and move it over to lay on the left frame rail, then hit the starter with the key off, and the nut will be loose.
