removing pully from engine?

[B man]

i want to hear all the ways you all have done it. i need to remove one,but cant get a puller.

I use a pry bar, claw hammer,clamp,screw driver, chisel and a hammer..I made a home made one with my welder..

i have a few times gotten snowblower engines that needed the pulley off. i losened the set screws and gently tapped the key back further into the keyway, with a flattened nail and hammer..

then i put a bunch of towels on the ground, drained the gas and oil of course, picked the engine up by the pulley in one hand and beat the crankshaft out with a hammer.

Whilst engine is running at a high idle, tap pulley lightly (with hammer) and it will eventually just fall off.
Trans fluid will facilitate removal.

but cant get a puller.

I assume you mean that you can not afford to buy one at the moment. Do you have a VIP Auto Parts store nearby? They loan out a 4" and a 10".
