For years I did a "one people" thing without wedging anything. One big break-over bar, one dig mauler, one people... Me.
Then I bought my high mileage claret. First order of business, new timing belt, etc. Break-over bar with my big old mauler didn't work. No clue what had been used to make sure the bolt didn't come loose before I bought the car.
Even that tight, when some helpful person suggested the starter thing, I was petrified at the thought of doing it. I mustered up the courage to try it and my fear turned to glee! Maybe that helps explain where I am coming from.
