use an air gun but if your not able 2 the way i do it is to put the socket on the bottom pulley bolt with a small breaker bar and rest it again the engine mounting, disconnect the coil so it wont start and turn the key. but dont turn it over a lot, just a little blip of the key should be enough and that should be enough, hope this helps
