How are you trying? I just pry it from both sides usually. Sometimes a propane torch on the gear helps some. Tap on it with a hammer to loosen it up too.

yeah if it can't take a few taps from a hammer it shouldn't be in the engine

Dont hit it with a hammer. Use a puller it if you can't rock it coff with a pair of pry bars. Hammers and engine parts don't mix
