Does the crankshaft nut trun left or right to loosen?
AnswerLeft, counter-clockwise. Lefty loosey, righty tighty. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------It depends on which way the crank rotates. If it rotates clockwise the nut will be threaded on counterclockwise to prevent it from loosening. If the crank rotates counterclockwise then the nut will be threaded on clockwise.
