I use a wide screwdriver and a hammer and GENTLE taps. If it doesnt go, Torch it then repeat. A jaws type valvespring compressor (if you get 1 with enough reach) will help you out here.
If it makes you feel better, dude, I broke both gears trying to get mine off and had to get the FMS replacement gear. It doesnt have the hole so my machinist had to eyeball it and drill. Luckily it worked.
To install, tap down with a deep socket over the gear. I was such a dunce, I install my first gear upside down and had to have to pressed off! Make sure your gear hole and the shaft hole
