You need to get a good puller. I have tried the Western Power pullers and they just mushroom and bend. I like the SLP pullers the best.

run it on a stand till it gets hot then give it a try
find a bolt that threads into the clutch, put some teflon tape on the threads tip the sled on its side put some water into the center hole and screw in the bolt, will pop right off.
or if the puller is messed up on the tip or broke below the threads just cut it down a bit and use it.

Get some heat on it with a torch. Also put on some antiseize on the crank when putting it back on.

I've heard there are good pullers and bad pullers. Mine cost me 60 bucks which I think makes it a good one but anyway it's never failed me. I know you aren't supposed to but an impact on a good puller usually breaks them frree.

If you can't hydraulic it off, tighten the bolt and give it a good shot with a hammer on the end of the bolt head, should pop right off. Wear safety glasses

Clutch
Tighten your puller as tight as you can (before it breaks). Use a heat gun not a torch on the clutch. it will take a little time but after about 5 min with the gun TAP on the clutch a little with a dead blow hammer. It will come off. Do not put anti-seize on shaft when you put it back on if you don"t want it to fall off. DO NOT BEAT ON THE PULLER OR BOLT TO GET IT OFF...YOU CAN TAP. (KEEP IN MIND YOU ARE BEATING ON THE CRANKSHAFT THAT SPINS AT 8800 RPM.) Just my 02.

A buddy of mine put some on his, and his clutch came off. Ended up wreaking a brand new clutch because of it. I wouldn't recommend it.

shaft
The clutch is a tapered shaft. The only way to mate a tapered shaft together is clean and dry.

Actually you are beating on a stub shaft that is spinning at 8000 plus rpm (the crank is separate). It's still bearings though, so maybe not the best to smash it.

I had 2 like that. I tried grease/freezing water; hammer...nothing worked. The only thing that did work in both cases was turning the inside shaft red hot with a propane torch while tightening the puller.

would that not wreck the bearings and seals in the motor??
J
so many different ideas i just have to figure out witch one will not damage anything else?!
Just tighten it tight and a big whack with a good steel hammer....been doing it for years with no issues.

Agreed. Anti-seize on a taper fit won't help matters.

???????
Whatever way you try.....No torch on the shaft. Heat expands it in the first place....You want to expand the clutch. Heat on the shaft will also damage seals....My bad on the crankshaft remark...It is the stubshaft that the clutch is on.
