crank shaft pully
 
1 Attachment(s)
Hey guys and gals, i was doing a head gasket, timing and water pump change on my l100, i ran into a problem, i can get the crank pully bolt out bc everything i try the crank still moves, also which way do i rotate the bolt to get it to come out is it standard thread or is it reversed threads, thanks guys for the help.

It is standard right hand threads. It is a torque to yield bolt just like the cam sprocket bolts. That means they should be replaced if removed. Pull the starter and you can stop the flywheel with a big screwdriver. The cylinder head bolts are also stretch to yield and need to be replaced.

why remove the fly wheel. also i got it off, called my uncle who is a master mechanic for bmw, he told me to remove the spark plugs from the piston that are not at top strock and put a piec of wood in them bolt the head on with only 4 bolt and it will hold the crank still with out damaging anything

I'm with you, Andy. Just read my signature. LOL

He never said to remove the flywheel,,,
You obviously do not read full sentences or you simply lack the ability to comprehend what little you did read of Andy's post.

I did not log on to berate you.
I logged on to let you know that since none of the experts want anything to do with you, there's no need for you to remain a member of the forum.

Which you are not anymore.

Happy trails

PS: That wood in the cylinder trick is priceless.
I love roaming splinters in my engine.-- just never thought of a way to consistently introduce them with such ease and regularity.while mangling open valves in the process when I don't catch the non TDC pistons on their compression stroke
