Default A comment....
<center><img src="http://samstagsales.com/images/t40001.jpg"></center><p>You might also check the regional forums here. There might be someone located near you with the tool. I've tried to to put off buying that one, its a pricey bugger. You do mean this tool?

Default ^---- what he said. My jaw almost hit the floor when I bought mine.
I think I paid nearly $300 through MAC tools for that exact tool. I'm positive they're found cheaper online.

Default You can use a regular 2 arm puller for that, which is what I do...

Default You aren't breaking it off, you are popping it off of a press mount..
this is to install the timing belt properly.

Default im saying if faced with buying a puller and possibly a new spocket if the tab breaks...
its cheaper to hammer off the old one :P and jsut replace it...that metals brittle enough for an air hammer.
