I'm nearly finished with my waste vegiie oil conversion and this needs to be addressed before I wrap it up.

In the past I used a 2 leg puller but in the Kubvan there is no room. Not enough for a puller or a plastic/brass hammer. Any ideas?

If you know of any of these forsale or would sell yours I would be a willing person to buy. I would love a salt resistance VW (part vw anyways) for the winter time so I could get ride of the 6 mpg dodge truck my wife is driving. 
 
As for getting the pulley off. I have a number of times gotten if off with a long pry bar. Careful though as you could break/damage/bent something. Also leave the nute on part way so it doesn't go flying into something else. Or-pull the engine.
