I just did the timing belt on my 89 Accord and had the same problem. I got
the bolt out with no problems but the pulley was frozen. I too buggered up
the pulley trying to use a puller that grabbed on each side. It didn't do
too much damage. Just tore a little chunk out of one of the tracks that
the
alternator/water pump belt goes on. I filed it straight and smoothed it
out
and so far it's not damaging the belt. My pulley has two holes in it
opposite to each other. I bought a steering wheel puller at Auto Zone for
about $15 and put a nut and bolt in each hole of the pulley and it worked.
