I recall mine coming off pretty easy but a little foggy to be 100% certain how I did it but here goes. Remove the center retaining bolt, see if the hub has large female threads. I believe it is 5/8x11 thread if memory serves. Find a 5/8x11 bolt maybe a couple inches long and thread it in. It will contact end of compressor shaft and pop the pulley right off.

It does have a 5/8 thread
below that is shaft end of the compressor
I figured that I could do what you did but
problem is I cant keep the thing from spinning
so I think I need a sleeved arbor or pulley remover different that the one oriellys sold me
