Think I'm gonna have to get a bigger puller

I'll keep preasure on it for awhile and give it a good hard smack every once in awhile, but I think I'm gonna have get more OMPHH.
On another item CaseIH says the gasket for the cover over the cam and timing gears behind the pulley is NLA. I found a NOS in my collection and would like to "copy" it or reproduce it some way(besides tracing it and getting it out of wack)Any good ideas/

Hello Tim,
put alittle heat on that pully, if you heat it up slow and get it about 100 deg above room temp she will pop right off.I have a toaster oven I use for putting them back on.
I am sure i have that gasket, buying one would be much easyer than making one.
Good Luck Ed

What model tractor are you working on? Is that the front cover for the engine? About two years ago I got a timing gear and a front cover gasket for a late 40's M from Case=IH. Make sure you are dealing with one of the older partsmen. Armand
 
That gasket is a part of any standard overhaul seal and gasket package. Nothing rare about it. Somebody's slackin' ya. If ya can't track one down locally call bermuda ken at 1-866-FARMALL.

As far as the pulley, your puller riggin' looks good. Heat applied to the pulley will be your friend. Keep it toward the outside, halfway or a little better between the center and the edge. The idea is to heat the pulley faster than the shaft.
 
CIH still has that gasket. It is not on the online parts catalog but I ran the part number from my good old fashioned paper parts book. The part number for the gasket is 46179DD, it sells for $12.99.
 
this is on a cub engine, but I made this rig after I broke a 5 ton gear puller on it.

One note, when using it the pump on the jack needs to be turned to the bottom.
 
In addition to heating the pully, the other thing is to rap the puller center bolt firmly with a hammer. Don't beat it to death, but 2-3 solid hits. That will usually pop it loose. I can't tell you how many fly-wheels I have removed on small engines with that approach. remember, there is a small amount of end play on a crank. all it takes is .001 or less movement to loosen the pulley........
 
Guess my parts guy slipped up on that gasket,(Super A) thanks for the heads up on it. I am hoping with some heat the pulley will come loose so I don't have to build a "jack puller", but thanks for the info. I'll put some more heat to it today and report back.
