Spray it with a bit of your favorite flavor of penetrating oil, e.g., wd-40 or whatever, and lit it sit for a little while. Then try gently prying it off working a large prybar, such as http://tinyurl.com/ts7i, between the pulley and lower timing cover. Alternate your use of the prybar from one side of the pulley to the other and the pulley should come off without too much difficulty. If you're careful, you can be successful with this method without damaging the lower cover. Eric |
