You don’t know what a press-fit pulley is.
You want to save yourself some time, aggravation, and money.
You cannot figure out which tool to use from the other threads on this subject.
The attached pictures show the right and wrong tool to use for removing the power steering pump pulley. The pulley removal and installation tool kit can be borrowed from auto parts stores. When assembling the pulley removal tool from the assorted bolts in the kit, make sure to use the long bolt with a smooth (unthreaded) lower half and flat (not tapered) tip. The narrower diameter end of this bolt has to slide all the way into the hole in the center of the pump shaft. The threads in the hole of the pump shaft are used only when installing the pulley. If you use the short bolt with a tapered end, it will expand the shaft while you are trying to pull the pulley off. The harder you try, the more difficult it will be for the pulley to slide off. In the end the lip on the hub of the pulley will break off.
