Oh, dude, the crankshaft bolt typically has right-handed threads. So, you turn it clockwise to tighten and counterclockwise to loosen. But hey, if you're feeling adventurous, you could always try turning it the other way and see what happens. Like, who knows, maybe you'll discover a whole new way to fix cars!
