Re: timing chain help PLEASE.

took mine to a machine shop, but im sure thats probably not an option for you. try a balancer puller. other than that, all i can say is get a flat punch and a hammer and work all the sides of it. good luck!

Re: timing chain help PLEASE.

Use the same puller that you used to pull your crank pulley off. Thats what I did and it came off in like 30 seconds. It doesnt require anywhere near the effort the crank pulley does, but it still needs the puller.
