I have my engine out (75 1.8 fwiw) and am trying to remove the cooling fan with no luck. I have a puller and it doesn’t budge, but I also was conservative on torquing because I’m afraid of stripping threads. Is there some hidden trick to this? I’ve got the hub basting in PB Blaster while I consult you gurus.
TIA Paul |

can you put some heat on the aluminum hub prior to attaching the puller?
