I need to remove the cam gear off the crank so that I can have some balance work done on a rebuild. I usually just have the machine shop do it but I elected to do the removal this time. I've put on several before but never removed one. Should it just be heated and use a gear puller or both? (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/confused24.gif)
Thanks for any input gang! Kevin |

Let the machine shop do it, you need a press.
Do not heat. |

While we're at it, NEVER USE A GEAR PULLER to remove the cam drive gear! EVER! It'kk mash the teeth under the puller arms and you'll need a new gear. Every time. The Cap'n
