Soak it with PB Blaster, get under the car and tap/knock it forward.

its two piece hub and ring.you should be able to pull dist by just taking the ring off.make sure you get it back on the same way you take it off.look for arrow cast in either the hub or ring.

No need to mark the balancer's hub or bring the engine to TDC. If installed correctly the opti and balancer only go back on one way.
