A cordless impact gun with a bit of power should do it!

Re: NEC Resto Show 2026
As its an Auto it's not as easy to lock the transmission up like on a manual.
So you might have issues stopping the engine turning over even with an impact tool if the crankshaft pulley is really tight. .

Re: NEC Resto Show 2026
I can provide lunchtime cover on the stand Friday say 1.00 - 2.00. I am sure John Butler will be there too (I have a ticket already). I could do the same and a bit more on the Saturday if you can provide a ticket for that day.

Re: NEC Resto Show 2026
Morning everyone,
The NEC Restoration Show tickets have officially landed!
And with the show now under two weeks away, things are starting to get exciting.
As usual, these tickets come with the very reasonable price of helping out on the stand — chatting to visitors, answering questions, and generally making us look like we know what we’re doing.
If your name is on the list below, please confirm you’re happy with your allocated day(s). If something has changed and you need a different day or ticket count, let me know ASAP so we can shuffle things around.
The list isn’t set in stone just yet, as swaps may happen depending on who needs to move days.
Also, if anyone else would like to get involved and help out on the stand, raise your hand! Extra helpers are always welcome and it’s a great way to be part of the weekend.

Please reply to confirm you're good for your day(s) so we can get everything finalised.
Looking forward to another great weekend at the NEC — good cars, good company, and probably far too much walking!
