shoul;d just pull off, but sometimes they corrode to the crank.

get cam cover bolts screw them in the holes and with a claw hammer tug each one in turn and it will come off

Oil pump shaft thing pulley was a bitch on the megane engine of mine, one of the torx was solid and couldn't lock it

Ended up using a suspenion C spanner thingy on it

We have a homemade puller for the crank ones

the starter motor back bracket thing can be used as a puller on them, but the claw hammer does it in a jiffy I find

nope it just spins round and i cant get nothing to grip it and if you put the belt on it slips

i might go get some long nose molegrips and clamp the belt tight to it then that might help...

if you get what i mean that is

and i dont think turning the crank will help unless you have to take the sump off before you can remove the piece??

my bad never saw you were on the oil pump one now!

moles on the belt will do it, the belt will prob tear though so be prepared.
