Are they reverse thread? I cant get it to catch a thread going normal way, and when i do reverse thread it on, it catches for a 1/4 turn then is a motherfucker to get in. Just needa know which way their threaded so i can hit the pos with a air gun.
 
Back the center bolt all the way out, thread left hand all the way in, shouldn't use impact to thread puller in, THEN hit center bolt with gun.
 
Got side tracked in garage..But after looking at flywheel closer, it looks like previous owner tried using something and f*cked threads. Puller will not catch a thread. I tried a little torch from autozone, but it wont heat it enough to make it soft enough to straighten out. What options do i have to fix this?
