Re: [DMCForum] Removal of Timing Pulley

[Martin Gutkowski <martin@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

It's 10mm and like everything else on the engine, Metric.

I get them out using an impct wrench but  long breaker bar and a QUALITY 
allen key socket, and if it helps, put it in 5th and get someone to 
stand on the brakes.

The crankshaft nut is 36mm
