if im correct then this is the best wa to do it put a breaker bar and the socket for the pulley make it so the breaker bar is touching the floor and crank it over with the starter and then take it out by hand and then u know wat to do with the rest

or if your 240 is manual then put it in gear while tring to losen it

An impact wrench will zip it right off.

the breaker bar and a short crank over will work, and it will work well. You could also have a buddy in the car, put transmission in 5th gear and have him step on the brakes too.

An air compressor and an impact gun would be the best thing though.

For those of us who don't have air tools just make sure the rear wheels are on the ground, put the car in 5th gear and pull the ebrake really tight then use a breaker bar or a regular ratchet and a long pipe. Also you do NOT need a special pulley puller tool to take it off, just pry from opposite sides and eventually it will come off by hand. If you want to do the breaker bar on ground/ cranking the engine method make sure you are loosening the bolt/figure out which way the engine is spinning and unplug your fuel pump fuse before you turn the key. I personally wouldnt do that method though. You'll figure it out, good luck!
