well the pulley isnt hard.. just put the bead of RTV at the bottom.. and the bottom bolts on the timing cover.. put them alil tighter.. not all the way.. but thread them in abit more.. cuz they become harder to tighten with the pulley on and in the way... for putting the pulley back on i dunno... i used that tool...will prolly be a bitch any other way you try

Dude, oil the snout. Get a bfh and a piece of 2x4. Show it some love. Being equall on all sides of course. Once you get it on there a bit, you can catch enough threads to pull it on with the crank bolt. Just dont get carried away with the hammer. Gentle and equall.

Or use a huge socket in the center of the pulley and beat it with a hammer.
