trying to find out if 1980 SIII 109 FFR's (2.25 petrol ex-mod) came with starting dogs on the crank pulleys? mine has the 3 groove crank shaft pulley and I do not need it since I converted it to 12V. mine does not have any starting dog attached but has a plain bolt that holds pulley on. there are 4 other smaller holes on the pulley that are threaded and was wondering if that was used to hold a plate/bracket that held a welded on dog?

I have bought a single pulley and starting dog to put on but cant get the flipping bolt free, tried cheater bar, heat and last resort used starter and cheater bar but still a no go. awaiting the arrival of some C4 to try that out. lol. wanted to have the feature of hand crank starting on the landy. thanks in advance. james8690

I don't have a starting dog-type engine, but weren't they an integral part of the bolt that holds on the crank pulley (tough probably not a 3-groove pulley)?:

Hmm... The only FFR Parts book I have is for a SIII air-portable, but this is the page for the crank pulley:

Those bolts can be on there pretty tight. If an air impact driver doesn't do the job, often the (unapproved) way to remove them is to stick an impact socket on the end of an 18" breaker bar, brace the breaker bar handle against the left hand (as you sit in the driver's seat) chassis rail then bump the starter to break the bolt free.
