Aircon pump pulley removal
« on: October 06, 2004, 08:11:12 »
Hi all,

My A/C pump pully is needing to be replaced due to the slight exploding of the tensioner wheel  :oops:

We removed the centre bolt.....and then then pulled...but it won't come off...does anyone have any sage advice? It's a 1997 Disco btw...

LR tool #1 - big hammer  :wink:

Could put a spanner behind it and try and lever it off.


. . . and how does something 'slightly' explode?

A/C pump pully puller?  :?
No one local with a three legged puller?
Is there a woodruff key? Can you get at it with a small punch to try to dislodge it slightly in case that's what is gripping it?

Try a combination of above, lever gently from behind and a centre punch/drift on the middle of the shaft and tap it

I always knew you couldn't pull :)

you could try the dentist trick, put a bit of string round it and attach it to the doorhandle ....    <SLAM>
