In the Bentley manual, one of the steps for replacing the head gaskets is remove the crankshaft pulley.  What is the reason for this?  Is it to remove the coolant cross-over pipe?  Are the special tools requiered to lock the crank or can the van be put in gear and chock the tires?

P.S. I will be going to Campbelltown, PA and hope to meet Ken there.  

TIA, John
