Crankshaft bolt removal - bump start
Hey guys,
This is in the newbie tech section for a reason......
I'm trying the bump start method of removing my crankshaft bolt (to replace timing chain, guides, etc on my 22re pickup) and I'm doing the best I can to learn and dive into it, but I just want to make sure I'm doing this right before screwing it up.
I know I want to prevent my engine from starting by disconnecting the coil wire, but I just want to double check that this means the wire that goes from my ignitor coil to my distributor? There is another set of wires in housing above the ignitor coil that I had trouble disconnecting, but I want to double check that these can indeed be left in place.
I've already taken out my distributor, which I'm also assuming is fine at this point?
Sorry if this is a super newbie question...there will probably be more to come but hey, I'm learning!
Thank you in advance!
Disconnected wire/plug to distributor, but the wiring up on top is still connected. Yes?
