Hi,
I am installing the automatic cam chain tensioner and I cannot remove
the camshaft nut... I locked the engine with the clutch looking tool
and the rear brake, and applied even pressure on the wrench but the
thing won't move and I'm afraid to break something...

I tried heating the nut... WD40... nothing

any advice for doing this ?

Thanks!
 
droujav,

The camshaft nut has a right-hand thread and is usually tightened with a relatively low torque value. So, it’s unusual that you are having problems loosening it. Perhaps your backup arrangement is slipping?
