Whats the trick to get the fly wheel nut off and is it left hand threads or right hand?

Takes a 1 7/16'' socket, flywheel holder and breaker bar. Right hand thread.

Impact wrench is the best way to go. Pneumatic power beats constant pressure

I've taken a lot of flywheel nuts OFF with an impact wrench but you NEVER put the flywheel nut back on with it. That's what torque wrenches are for.

Is this English? "man up right turn clyde"? Must be some nautical term.
