Removing flywheel 12hp riding mower

Hit a stump while mowing killed engine. Restarted with a boost from truck. Finished mowing yard. Next time I tried to start mower would not hit just turn over. This mower in a 1990 Lowes 42in deck. Thought I may have sheared pin in flywheel, tried to remove flywheel with harmonic balancer puller would not move. Got it soaking in WD 40 until I get back to mower. Any sugestion?

Usually if you put some pressure on it with the puller and give it a few sharp raps with a hammer, it will pop off.
