Or have someone hold the harmonic balancer bolt with a breaker bar while you undo then with another breaker bar

Ill try the rattle gun, i bought one recently its just a pain to take it off the engine stand

I tried using 2 breaker bars but it ended up just undoung the harmonic balancer bolt every time :/ i even tried using the rattle gun on it to tighten it

I locked the flywheel using a piece of ally plate and a couple of bolts. Worked a treat ...
