So my removal of the outer v-belt pulley on the crankshaft of my 16V
did not go...so well.
I give you:

This was Force. Lots of force.
-Larger allen wrenches
-Hammers
-Impact guns
-18" of galvanized gas pipe
-Dremel
-8 cutting wheels
-A cold chisel
-A punch.
A touch of Chemicals (Kroil), and some Money ($28 + $30 shipping
from Adirondack to get this <http://www.germanautoparts.com/

to the power steering pump pulley.
3 of the 4 bolts knocked loose just fine. This one? Well, let's
just say that I hit the Daily Double on "German Engineers I'd Like To
Slap, Alex".
However, victory was mine, moo-hah-hah.
EXCEPT NOW I CAN'T GET THE OTHER PULLEY OFF THE CRANKSHAFT! *(%^&*($&*
