I just did the valves on a friends 84 300D today, and the PS nut worked fine. Have fun.

If you have ever tried to turn the engine over by the crankshaft bolt, you know it is almost
impossible to get to with the fan etc. on. Use your 22mm wrench and turn the engine by the
power steering pump bolt. Yes you need to make sure you belt is tight to specs.
***Always turn clockwise, never counter clockwise!




It would have been nice if that subject was broached in the dieselgiant dvd. Anyway, tomorrow I adjust my valves. Thanks, Guys.
