I need to pull my fan hub (the part behind the fan with 3 bolts) to install a new seal. I used a puller but it doesn't want to come off. My flywheel is removed and it seems to pull the crank forward but won't release. Should I heat the hub or what? Is this part normally this hard to remove?
Thanks for the help, Dave |

Mine didn't go flying, but boy did that Woodruff key bounce around! You might want to wrap a rag around the hub, and possibly put a catch pan under the front of the engine. Would'a saved me 20 minutes worth of looking for that stupid little half-moon piece of metal...
