If the motor is in the car, put it in 5th gear and have someone step on the brakes. Use a long extension and a HUGE breaker bar. It'll come off.

snap-on makes a tool for that, but i think you have to have the flywheel on. just put it back on so you can hold it in place, use the holder tool, and the breaker bar with extension like people said up above. it will come off.

Well the problem is you can't put the flywheel on while it's on the stand. And I don't feel liek braking my back trying to get it off the stand by myself. Air tools isn't the problem it's holding the pulley so it dosen't move. I'll figure something out. Let me check my shop manual and see what it says.
