·Is this thing just really stuck or am i not doing something right?!?
i'm trying to get the crankshaft damper off my I6 200. I rented the damper/balancer puller tool from my auto store and hooked it up. started turning the screw with a ratchet, later with the impact wrench with no apparent success. Then, i started stripping threads on the puller and decided to call it a night. It doesnt appear that the thing has even budged. i even tried to 'help' it along a bit with some gentle prying(gasp), but didnt want to bend my crank.
whats the trick here?
also, how am i gonna return the puller with the stripped threads?(doh!)
