Rich,
This should add to your enjoyment. Greg mentioned that I didn't even need
the puller to begin with. That got me to thinking.....why did I even use
the puller in the first place? So, I grabbed one of my repair manuals to
see if it mentioned the puller in the instructions.
Sure enough, on page 2C-12 of the Haynes manual on line 13 it states, "The
sprocket on the crankshaft can be removed with a two or three jaw puller,
but be careful not to damage the threads in the end of the crankshaft".
I had this book along with another open in front of me the whole time I
was working!!! How did I manage to read the first part of this line and not
the second?!?!
Who brought this subject up again anyway? :) I thought I had kicked
myself enough for this. Now I see I how bad I really screwed up. :) I have
to admit though, it is pretty funny.

Aaron,
Yes, I am laughing. A lot too, but I shouldn't be. I almost pulled the
same trick with my puller. Well, if its any consolation, I'm preparing to
pull my own tranny after the Dak comes back from the paint shop. This
should prove interesting.
Sorry for laughing, but you just made my day. Up to this point, my day has
been in the toilet. Thank goodness tomorrow is the last Monday of this
week!
Catch you later,
Rich
