I tried CKTA's method for loosening the "big nut" to get the fan off, but just effectively tightened the snot out of the 10mm bolts on the water pump pulley. Fearing that I might snap one of those bolts off, I went to NAPA and bought a "Universal Pulley Holder/Fan Clutch Tool" for $28. It worked well, and hopefully will be of use in the future, as it is "universal".

Cheaper alternatives might be available from Northern Tool or Harbor Freight or the like, I don't know, but I needed the tool right then.
