[Vwdiesel] removing crank bolt

[David Cook]

Put the car in first or reverse, get the parking brake
set as securely as you can, block the wheels if
necessary and crank away on the bolt.  If the car
still wants to move, have a friend stomp on the brake
pedal.

Failing that, remove the oil pan and block the crank
with a block of wood.

Good luck,

David
