what pullers are you using. I tried with a generic cheap ebay special and it bent that(was in my tool box). Then I bought a mini puller and with my 2ft bar and pop, straight off.
I had an old mini one - which broke - and I also had one from ebay - a Draper one.

I assume that you have removed the flywheel key, I didn't once and wondered why it was not moving until a friend pointed out my mistake.
yes - thanks - but I did check a couple of times because I couldn't believe it wasn't moving

Well done I told you it wouldn't let you down, did it come off with a bang or a whimper?

Funny I didn't think it was going work - I tightened it all up and it didn't move - so I hit the end a few times, re-tightened it as much as I could, but it still didn't move - so I was about to give up and went for a cuppa to consider my options.
About 1/2 hour later, I went back into the garage and give it another go - hit it again and re-tightened it, and it just fell off - I actually thought that I had pulled the threads out of the puller or something because there was not bang or noise at all - the bar I was using just turned and become all loose.

That's a shame, Its nice when they go with a bang and hit your knee or hand or some other body part, Its much more satisfying.
