Hi guys,
Trying to find the crankshaft to manually rotate the crank but can't seem to find it. Is it hidden under the cam covers??
Thanks

lol, take your drivers side wheel off, then the plastic cover off from in there. You'll see it. Its got a big pulley on it.

So is it timing belt or lifters?

Lifters, just needed to rotate it so the cam lobes didn't press the spring as much. I didn't want to do a dodgy like Bennoz and flick the ignition

I guess a flick of the starter is a tad quicker
