Default HELP! Crankshaft Pulley broke

I was using my 3 way pulley puller and one of the wings that the puller attaches to snapped off. Does anyone know of another method to remove the pulley?

turn the fingers of the puller out and grab the inside part of the hub

It sounds like your balancer is really stuck on there. You can use a propane torch to heat up the balancer around the crankshaft. Don't heat the actual crank as it will be counter productive.

Heating the balancer will make it expand some and not grab the crankshaft so tightly.
