How do you remove the harmonic balancer from a 96 neon . I tried use a 3 prong puller with a pin insert in the hole . but am bending the pin.

After removing the bolt, spray with WD40 or penetrating oil. Once you have installed the puller and have applied pressure try tapping the Balancer with a mallet or hammer to let the oil help. Sometimes they get stuck on there pretty tight.
