If you're talking about removing it, get a good impact wrench. It should spin it right out. If you have no choice but to do it by hand, someone makes a lock that goes in after you remove the starter (not sure who though). I've also heard about people wedging a screwdriver up into the inspection holes, but I don't know that I'd do that.

if you do a screwdriver, make sure it's a very thick one. i end one that had a plastic handle.

We got it, we were just bitching.... Now the problem is, I have a crank pulley puller, but I have an underdrive pulley-- Does this just take time, or is there a special tool for the UD Crank Pulley?

you need to get one where you can bolt it to the front of the pulley. you need the right size bolts. at least thats what i did.
