With respect to the fact that most people who have contributed are probably more experienced and knowledgeable at mechanicing for a living, I would be very hesitant to use any method that would/could cause a sudden jolt to the parts inside, for fear of bending or damaging something in the system. This is why I started off by pryiing gently on the ring gear until the flywheel moved a little both ways and finally moved 360 degrees. JH
