Hello everyone I'm looking for a flywheel locking tool for the 1.0 ecoboost don't fancy doing the screw driver trick!!

Can someone please let me know what they use to lock the flywheel in place so that I can remove the bottom pulley bolt

You can usually get away with an appropriately sized drill bit can't you?

All done it's amazing what you can make with a welder and a grinder.  

Thanks Steve

Too late mate it's gone in the bin sorry. 

Looks like it's a head gasket fault getting the head pressure tested in the morning 

Thanks Steve

So you've fabricated a tool to lock the flywheel to remove the head but then throw it in the bin?..

That puzzled me too. Surely he'll need it for reassembly?

and wouldn't you always keep it in case you need it on another car at a later date

I would.

What have I done! !! I didn't think about putting it back on!!!!!!! 

I was too busy jumping around my garage after getting the pully off in the first place  what a plonker!!!!

Yours sincerely Steve Evans
