of, for sure we had beer while doing it. i have to have beer while doing a heavy project. but only like 2 total. i've NEVER gotten drunk while working with tools. that reminds me of a third way to get a bolt loose. beer strength. me and a buddy couldn't get a brake caliper bolt loose. we decided to take a break and get some beer strength. afterwards, we manned up and yanked harder and got that sucker loose. hahaha

soooooooo,
to anyone reading this and wondering if the reverse procedure works...well I'm gonna tell you it does.
hooked up in the reverse direction to install the new bolt (looks kinda familiar, eh?)
that didn't help, so I dug into the "make a tourniquet" trick and used my medium torque wrench to give it that extra grab....using my foot to hold it twisted....i guess I'm still flexible.
and again, with an unimpressive "CLICK"...116ft/lbs was achieved (and checked) and achieved again.

looks like it, but it's not. tied off, looped around twice and tied off again, and then a little "tourniquet" twist and bada-bing, bada-boom, it was done.

The breakerbar/tap the starter was the only way to get the crank pulley bolt off the old Fiat X19's, no room for an impact . Yeah, I'm that old. On the Toyotas, I just fire up my IR air compressor and use the 1/2 impact gun with a swivel socket.
