Hello everyone. I'm currently doing a cam swap and I'm trying to take off the harmonic balancer. In the process of taking it off, only the outer part of it came lose. Now I can't get the smaller piece off, because when I turn the harmonic balancer puller, it just turns the whole motor! What to do?

I had this same problem when I was installing my underdrive pullies. I had the pulley puller on the crankshaft pulley and was trying to remove it. I didn't know what was going on and then I looked real close and noticed there was a washer on the crank pulley. Removed the washer and then it pulled off just fine.
