And with a different puller (bent the others) the sprocket came off with loud pop! Whew, nothing broken. Thanks! ----- ORIGINAL MESSAGE FOLLOWS ----- Get yourself a plumbers torch or one of those propane torches (blue bottle) with a flame nozzle. Hook up your cheap gear puller like you have it and put as much tension on it as you can. Spray a little bit of PB Blaster (or equivalent) where the sprocket and shaft meets. Run the torch around and around the gear but avoid the shaft area. The PB Blaster will begin to smoke. Not too close and not too far away either. Don't worry about the shaft seal behind the gear as you're going to be replacing that anyway. In a few minutes the gear will 'pop' away from the shaft and you'll say "Heck, that was easy". ----- ORIGINAL MESSAGE FOLLOWS ----- Engine sprocket seems general. Here are some pics of what I'm referring to. ----- ORIGINAL MESSAGE FOLLOWS ----- Hi All I'm trying to pull the engine sprocket from my 63 Scat and it seems to not want to budge. Does it pull straight off like the clutch hub? I've bent two inexpensive pullers already. The more robust ones wont fit under the sprocket. I do see on the shaft that its keyed. Do I need to drive that out first? Thanks in advance for your help. -Adam |
