RE: [ST] Some garages -

["Chris Harwood" <Chris@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

A mate and I were working on his 3 litre Vauxhall Senator a few years
back (we both had one) and his needed the crankshaft pulley off for some
reason.  I'd done mine previously and couldn't remember if it was a
left-handed thread.  We spent a happy(?) couple of hours turning it,
splitting sockets (3 if I recall and they were 3/4in!) and banging
elbows on other engine parts etc.  before, during a coffee break, I
tried the 'other way' and it came off easily.  However, it did look like
an hourglass and we had to replace it.

Boy did we laugh (not).
