Hey zone, Im trying to remove the fan/clutch assembly on a m20 engine, i've been turning the 32mm nut that sits ahead of the pulley clockwise as i believe it has a left handed thread but when i turn the nut clockwise with the spanner the pulleys are moving and the 32mm nut dosent seem to be coming loose. Can anyone tell me what i can do to loosen this nut with out the pulleys moving?

cheers guys
