Just goes to show you that sometimes the best tool in the kit is a 5 pound
sledge hammer!

I struggled
quite a bit with mine. Fortunately, the engine is on a stand so I was able
to use a puller with the ears attached the fan mounting bolts & a piece of
scrap steel rod in the hole where the large bolt was. It took a lot more
oomph than I expected. I suppose patience & a copious amount of penetrating
oil applied to the shaft directly behind the pulley would work in time.
Unfortunately, the position of the pulley is right in the area where the
length of engagement is precluding direct application of heat.
