Crank pully will not come off..Any help?
Hey guys, doing the cam install. I have the 3 arm puller, my air gun will not turn it anymore and the pully will not break free. Any ideas?

i have the type of puller that has 3 arms with the hooks. I have it hooked to the rear of the pully, hitting it with the gun and it does not move. am i missing something? Is there some key or something?

Ratchet and a 2'-3' breaker bar. Sometimes it takes quite a bit to break it free. Once it pops it'll come off easier. I broke 3 cheapy 3 arm pullers at one time trying to get the crank pulley off. Twisted the rod right in half.
I picked up an "OEM" 3 arm puller from autozone and that did the trick.

OK the stock bolt is out, but what did you put in its' place for the puller rod to buck up against? There is no key or keyway. It's an interference fit. It doesn't really "break loose" and then come off more easily the rest of the way. It just requires slow steady pressure till you reach the step at the back face of the pulley bore.

This May Seem A Bit Dumb To Ask But Did You Loosen The Crank Bolt Out First?
When We Did My Swap We Loosened The Crank Bolt But Kept It In So The Pulley Puller Wouldent Mess Up The Threads And Gradually Brought The Bolt Out More As The Pulley Needed It
