Camshaft pulley bolt

Post by timmyt » Sat Jun 18, 2011 9:34 am

Hi all,Anyone know if the camshaft pulley bolt is right hand or left hand thread?
Its Bl$$dy tight and want to make sure im going in the right direction!
No markings on bolt to indicate its a lefty.
So to loosen do i turn it clockwise or anti-clockwise?!
