you'd think, but in practice, it's very hard to get it right if there's
too much elasticity. friction of the bolt interfaces is uneven - the
more elasticity, the more opportunity for friction to momentarily lock
movement. to put it another way, /you/ may be turning the wrench
smoothly, but with excess elasticity, the crank is not resisting smoothly.

Resistance is quite regular and smooth, actually. Drivetrain lash is
negligible compared to the amount of compression undergone by the clutch
friction disc springs.

If you have a helper step on the brakes, you feel the lash being taken
up, then you feel the clutch springs compressing. It's fairly
predictable, and amounts to having a really long extension on your
torque wrench.

Now if you had an automatic, how would you hold the pulley still for
bolt-tightening without a proper pulley-holder tool? That would be
tough, wouldn't it?

When I did my wife's (automatic) Tercel's timing belt last year, I had
to fabricate a simple tool to hold the pulley still. It's just a three-
foot length of steel with two holes drilled in it.

Luckily, Toyota designed the pulley in such a way that it was possible
to bolt a holder in place.

the springs are a good point - i'd overlooked that!

technically though, you can't rely on long elastic paths of travel for
this stuff. if you look at strain gauges when torquing bolts, it's
actually a series of lurches. springiness in the system allows more
deflection per lurch, and will often omit the final stage. that's why
you have torque extensions for impact tools - you can apply big torque
at one end, but the other end won't over-tighten. correspondingly,
"stiff" pulley bolts are devils to manually loosen with 1/2" extensions,
but they come off easy with 3/4" tools. same applied torque in either case.

Nice tool! Can you make me one? ;-)

How about putting some thin nylon rope in the number 1 cylinder as it
comes up on compression stroke? Kind of a PITA, but it works.

I have heard of people using an impact wrench to tighten the crankshaft
bolt. Kind of scary if you ask me...

I used the Powebuiilt crankshaft tool . Got it from Amazon - Powerbuilt-648796 Crankcase PulleyRemova Tool
