I'm not to sure. But I do know the timing belt is not something I would want to screw up. I would personally have a shop do it.

I would have been able to tell you if I was even able to get the pulley off. I tried to change my T-belt a couple weekends ago. The 125psi impact gun was no match for that dang thing! Sorry...

I know what you mean. I put a new head gasket on my car 2 weeks back and had a hell of a time getting my RRM pulley off. It took me almost 30 minutes to get it off of my crank. Needless to say it didn't find its way back onto my car. I put my stock crank pulley back on. RRM might need to check the clearances on the inside where it slides onto the crank. I remember it felt a bit tight when I initially installed it.

As for your timing belt, what exactly are you trying to adjust? Is your timing off a tooth or do you think the belt is loose? You might need a new tensioner. But you can re-tension the timing belt while its on the car if you need to.
