Hello again,
As my question is related to a crank gear + seal, I thought it best not to post this under my fuel-smell topic.
My question is if there's a special trick to removing the crank gear/sprocket that has a brass-plate piece right behind it. I read MRG207's 3.5l timing belt thread and he appears to have had success using a nail-puller/flat crowbar and wiggling it off in increments. When I tried to remove it, it was pretty stuck. Usually this just slides right off on other vehicles I've experienced.
I need to remove this gear in order to replace the crank seal right behind it.
Any trick to it?
Thank you,
Quix
