Do you insert the locking tool into the pulley and then slide a socket through the locking tool onto the bolt?
The Haynes manual does not mention a locking tool.
It suggests removing the starter motor and putting a wide flat bladed screwdriver into the teeth of the flywheel. also makes it sound a simple job

Hi Ian.
Yes the socket goes through the tool which hold the crank pulley in place if you go for this tool below then it would be better used with a tube, or you could wedge it on the sub frame I think, as you will need both hands to lever the socket & bar, also a tube

I have the tool above in my shed but have never used it yet.

I would prefer to use this the proper tool for the job.

rattle guns can cause timing chain trouble so be careful using one of those, thread recently about an engine that would not start after using a rattle gun on the crank pulley.
