    heat the balancer with the torch, not the crank, and when you have tension on the puller like it feels like it wont move, tap the balancer,, work the puller tap the balancer and so on, hopefully that will let it pop forward, little by little.

    Heat the front of the pulley? Like around the shaft? Or the side of the pulley (where the belt runs)?

    heat the front of the balancer around the crank, but try not to heat the crank, you want the balancer to expand.

    Doesn't the harmonigc balancer have a rubber insert in it (for damping purposes)? If so, get ready to replace your balancer it you put a rosebud to it....
