Hi Karl,
No, it's just normal ol' right hand thread. I use an 1/2" air impact wrench
to break it loose. If that doesn't work, I made a tool that attaches in
place of the pulley halves to hold the crank from turning. Then I use a
1/2" breaker bar and cheater pipe. Give the impact a try first, it works
90% of the time. Cheers,

Charlie

I am trying to remove the crank nut off my Ambo, So I can ramove the
timing cover. Is it reverse thread ? I have soaked it with PB blaster
and Heated it with a propane torch. Nothing works. Any Ideas ?
