Ken, sometimes it helps to work the crank sprocket forward also.

Dear Ken,


         So the cam sprocket is on the cam.  Is the chain and crank sprocket
also installed?

         IIRC,  half the time the cam sprocket would come off with some
fiddling with fingers and/or gentle prodding with a pair of large
screwdriver behind the gear sequentially levered up to wiggle it off.  The
other half of the time, it required a more vigorous two screwdriver
technique.   I've had mine off and on more than once and, as far as I know,
I haven't damaged the gear.   I hope this makes sense.


                    Warmest regards,  Chuck Engles

 It's a near new double row chain gear set so I don't want to damage the
gear.
 
Thanks,
