    Only thing you can put on that bolt is an open or box end wrench or a crows foot.

    Wouldn’t recommend trying to break it loose with a crowfoot. Solid chance that’ll break and take a deep dive into your motor

    Good call, I used the Mercedes Benz engine mount tool, worked perfect on my big torque wrench.

    Snap on extra long box end wrench works good for this if u need to add a pipe on for more leverage since no open end to cut off to fit a pipe on it. Hate double linking wrenches

    Yup, a crows foot will start flexing and slip and I'd give it a 95% chance of rounding off that bolt. lol

    You have to use I think it's a 22mm socket to turn the crank clockwise, leverage is key, cheater bar.

    So are the marks on the chain important? Or so I need it to be at zero on the crankshaft and the dots lined up with the timing marks?

    So I have my timing mark at zero and both dots line up with the time mark I’m worried about the paint on the chain should I be?

    Sounds like you have it right. Crank at 0, timing marks lined up at the cams and the painted links should line up also. Takes a few rotations sometimes to get them all lined up.
