Hahah if you're referring to beer then I completely agree with you haha this whole build is almost fueled entirely from beer but how did you guys get your crank pulley bolt because I tried to use the starter method but it didn't work it lifted the bug but I was thinking of starting it a little farther up to get some momentum on the breaker bar or I here there's some kind of belt method there's a video of how to do it but they didn't show it very well..
Also cranked my impact to the max and nothing I only have a small compressor so that's hopeless as well
I have an angle iron with a notch to get around the pulley and a head with 4 studs to lock the pulley, it is long enough to tough the ground and I use a breaker bar to get the nut loose and also use the too when torquing it back on. You can chose to fabricate one or purchase one but you are going to want the tool, for the recessed pulley like yours I am on version 2.0 the first one was on a piece of round stock and it bent just to note.

damn i guess i will have to suck it up and buy it.. even know its like 15 bucks itll help in the long one is there really a difference in the recessed pulleys compared to the non recessed?
in the mean time of waiting for parts and being done with the bridgestone golf tournament i can finally start working on the buggy again, i hear a few options for the vss one a simulator, others a custom hall effct style set up.. what did you guys use? and how does it work, how long have you had it? Also for the o2 sensors i have a 95 so theres two rather than one?? i believe.. It looks like some people run 1 rather than two is that okay or not because i know they are used to monitor fuel trims or at least i thought they did
Here's a tool I made up to hold the crank pulley, and extra holes (5-bolt pattern) to work on the cam pulleys too. Just a plate with a handle and some bolts sticking out and bolted to the plate. Slipped some rubber tubing (probably fuel line or similar) over the bolts to protect the cam pulleys. Socket wrench goes through the middle. Worked great!
PressY4pie, i have not actually drove it yet i have been pretty busy lately so i haven't done much. i hear it limits you to 4k rpm or something around there i could be mistaken.
GS guy, i like the rig looks like it would work rather well how much did you make it for?
well i took the engine out to get a few gaskets in. it slowly kept leaking more and more so i know the valve covers and other odds and ends but im going to put the metal oil separater plate so i take the old junk plastic one off and to my surprise find this wonderful sludge filled mess! good to know people find it wise to add oil rather than replacing it. damn cheap and lazy people!!! and yes those are nugget sized chunks

spent a couple quite a few hour the last two days cleaning the entire engine waiting on the gasket set to get here so heres how it turned out. I used a couple different wire wheels, power washer, purple power, tooth brush and more wire wheels. I thought it turned out well. i have yet to do anything with the timing belt area im still working on getting it off
