Fellow Scions,
I must interject at this point. The tool of choice for me when
doing jobs like this is the Vise-Grip Chain tool. It allows you to grasp
the pulley from the circumference without the likelyhood of damage to the
pulley track. This thing is really amazing. It also works to loosen
those 69-74 Triumph Spit/GT-6 plastic brake master caps without damage.
Once fitted, you can use a cheater bar on your favourite ratchet to
get the nut off, and let the Vise-Grip Chain Tool rest against the frame.
