Crank sprocket removal?

[dsmfa9nutter]

How do I get this thing off? Got the square drive bolt out, now the sprocket won't budge. (63t btw)

man put a air wrench or electric one in that thing and put it in reverse it will come right out!

All you have to do is lightly tap the washer that sits in there with a hammer then slowoy pry forward with a pry bar from behind.

Do not apply to much pressure or you will ruin the pulley.

OK after reading the post again are we talking the pulley or the timing chain gear that sits on the crankshaft?

I have used a puller to remove the timing gear. Depending on stuck yours is it could necessary to do the same thing.

+1 for the puller.. its saves time and effort...

The timing gear pulley/sprocket. Tried a puller and it stretched/bent/ruined the bolts. Yes, this is with the big square driven crank bolt out already.
