Or you could pull it apart and have the rotor placed in a vice..

unless you can jam the pulley with a screwdriver, then you will need a rattlegun, and prolly a 15/16 socket, if it is a bosch alt.

Went down to FTG auto salvage today, n tried a rattle gun.. lol Dunno what bit was used, but its wasnt budging, seems to be chipping the nut more than anything - still not off, i almost give up.

Use a flank drive socket on it if you have already started to wear the corners off... they grip on the flat surfaces of the bolt / nut instead of the corners.

or use a single hex socket, a lot harder to round the corners of the nut.

If your willing to give it a go aswel id be wrapped, just give me a time when your not too busy n you dont mind having a fiddle. Its only the 1 pulley to go; other 2 are fine.
think ive lost power as is, PML
