WARNING !!! DO NOT use the cotter key method if the engine is out, on a stand, and upside down. I just tried this tonight and the key lodged into and then sheered off at the oil galley outlet. Had to pull the crank without pulling the heads. Got it out by myself but might require and extra set of hands to drop it back in. Pissed to say the least......GET A DEDICATED TOOL for this job.!!!
