What is the best trick to install this bolt at 410mn.
The block is on a engine stand at the moment.

Cheers

Thats what i think we be doing as thats how we got it undone and bolts in the flywheel end this time, with a lever bar locked to the stand.

Just wondering if there was another way people use without the bmw tool.

Cheers any way
