Crank bolt came out easy but I'm quite frustrated by how none of the harmonic puller tools online have m12x1.25 center bolts. Anyone have some advice or a tool part # that's good for getting the harmonic balancer off?

Also, why do you need to thread the puller into the crank? You can use a regular 3 jaw or something and grab the power steering belt pulley, or use a T shape puller and thread some M8? bolts into the holes on the pulley

I dont think its a press fit since its keyed. Should wiggle off.

Yes, sounds rusted on. Maybe a little wack on the face of it would break it loose. Dont hit on the edge though, you'll break the lip off.
