Ij am having trouble with getting the above off of the described car. The repair manuals I have seen say to just use a 3 jaw puller. This I have done but it isn't budging any. I checked for set screws and have found none. I have removed several other Harmonic balancers and have never encountered this problem. Am I missing something here? I warmed the pulley in an attempt to get the pulley to expand using a propane torch, but to no avail. Any reccomendations?

Need the three jaws puller
install the center bolt in and turn it 3 to 4 turns (same bolt that removed from the harmonic balancer )
let the center puller bolt rest on it and the should pull the pulley out
watch it as its coming out you may have to loosen the center bolt a turn or two
hope you get what I mean
