Default How to remove tensioner pulley for PSK install?

Hi all,

Bought a PSK from needswings, and true to previous experiences, the instructions are frakkin vague. Here we go:

1. remove engine cover
2. loosen tensioner to release belt (e-10 torx socket)
3. remove belt
4. remove bracket holding pulley #9
5. remove pulley #9
6. replace pulley #3
7. install new belt loosely

Anyway, I know it's the tensioner pulley, but how the hell do I remove the thing? Using a socket only causes it to pivot (thus loosening belt tension), but does nothing to actually remove the pulley itself.

I did a search and came across someone who had the same problem... but he never really said what he did to do it. I only see a few pictures.

Some help would be appreciated. Thanks!
