I pulled the balancer.. not sure how to get the timing belt gear off...??!!?

Are you working with a copy of the TSRM? If I recall correctly, you'll need two very long, small ('M6' size?) bolts that screw into holes in the timing gear...with those long bolts you can use a standard puller.

Again, I'm not sure the thickness of the threaded bolts ('M6' is what I would guess), but it's the same as all of the other bolts & studs on the car that have a 10mm nut. I'd estimate the length of the two bolts you need to be about 3 or maybe even 4 inches. One time when I did this job, I used four of the studs & nuts that you'll find holding down your valve covers on the inside corners. (I had these four spares laying around), and I welded each pair of them together, end-to-end. That made them long enough to do the job.

and a nice easy way to put it

if ya got a melted spark plug... i can gaurantee you have melted pistons = bad compression = bad running = tear down time

experienced this 3 times on one engine unfortunately
