Heh... I almost made this mistake too. You don't need to take the bolt out... only the four bolts that hold the pulley on. The crank pulley is held on by these bolts, too... you'll just need to wiggle it a bit to get it to come all the way out. _____________ List Sponsor: http://www.netsville.com To remove yourself from this list, send mail to [email protected] with 'unsubscribe a2_16v' in the body of your message See us on the web at http://www.a2-16v.com Visit the 16V Homepage at http://www.gti16v.org
