Hey so I’m trying to inspect the little bolts on my flex plate but I can’t seem the turn the thing.
should I have the tranny in neutral?
do I disconnect the battery and then try to turn the crank with a ratchet?
any help would be very appreciated.
thanks

Yes.
Yes, that's one way. Disconnect the ground cable. OR, locate your ASD relay (in the PDC) and pull it.
Yes, that's one way. OR, if you have pulled the ASD relay, you can bump the starter with the ignition switch to move it around. With the ASD relay pulled, it will not start.
