So, do the harmonic prop pullers work well?
Otherwise, there is no real difference between the regular type OJ puller and the acme puller beside price, right? ------------- 78 martinique- refloored, reinforced, stringers re glassed, re engineered interior GT40P heads Edelbrock Performer intake acme 4 blade http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v64/horkn/fish/nautique.jpg |

I'm sure someone has used the harmonic pullers.
I'm just wondering if the harmonic puller works every time. A harmonic puller that won't pull off stubborn props is not worth it to me. ------------- 78 martinique- refloored, reinforced, stringers re glassed, re engineered interior GT40P heads Edelbrock Performer intake acme 4 blade http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v64/horkn/fish/nautique.jpg |

Tom,
I wouldn't waste my money on a harmonic! Or, you can go and buy a $2.00 3/4-10 coupling nut and pound on it! 
You'll have a hard time using the harmonic on a prop that's properly installed by lapping it to the taper. BTW, hammering on the end of the shaft does wonders for the trans bearings!!  ------------- /diaries/details.asp?ID=1622" rel="nofollow - 54 Atom /diaries/details.asp?ID=2179" rel="nofollow - 77 Tique 64 X55 Dunphy Keep it original, Pete < |

yea and a harmonic puller doesn't even have arms, guess you use screws and a makeshift plate.
Pete he's about as acurate with tool names as he is with ford engines ------------- http://www.correctcraftfan.com/diaries/details.asp?ID=756&sort=&pagenum=1&yrstart=1979&yrend=1979 - 79 nautique |

Yeah Pete, I was not really sold on hitting the shaft with a hammer to pull the prop.
Chris, The makers of the harmonic pullers call them that. It's not me that named them incorrectly. ------------- 78 martinique- refloored, reinforced, stringers re glassed, re engineered interior GT40P heads Edelbrock Performer intake acme 4 blade http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v64/horkn/fish/nautique.jpg |
