Er, no link. He showed me this gadget in Czech four years ago, I guess pm'ing him would be the way to go.

What Sean is saying is that constant applied pressure won't shift it, but a sudden, high shock loading is the approach to use. You have definitely removed the bolt?

no Martin got my drift, :lol:

but as we're being sensible it has to be a sharp ringing blow as its the ringing sound is the the shock that's being transmitted to the hub - same with splitting tapers on ball joints.

Allen key on a 8 mm socket through the middle reaching the bolt. Unscrew the bolt and the bolt will hit the bush, voila pop and the fan is off. No hammering

and that one is about to fracture too - its the high speed vibration from the alternator and the design that caused the failure especially if its on an engine that sees lots of revs rather than the shock which has little or no affect on the web of the pulley
