Quick crankshaft pulley question was created by Rogerzilla
I don't want to DIY for various reasons - the garage is worried because Autodata or whatever they use says a special tool is required to remove the pulley.
1. Is this just a locking tool to stop it turning while the bolt is being unscrewed, in which case there are various standard techniques like an air gun, a sprag through one of the slots, etc?
2. Does the pulley come off easily by hand once the bolt is out?

Yes the special tool is just a long bar with a couple of holes in it to hold the pulley. A proper impact driver will undo the nut, or there are other methods that don't require any special tools. Once the bolt is out the pulley comes off very easily.
