Hi benrobin,

There is a tool, I believe, that you can buy that is a Puller of some sort. I'm not Plumber but visit a Plumbing Supply House (found in the YELLOW PAGES under PLUMBING - SUPPLIES) for help. Maybe someone here will 'come back' and tell you what it is. I could be thinking of something completely different but you have nothing to loose by asking the House.

My best to ya and hope this helps.

Dear Benrobin,
The tool you seek is a Faucet handle puller. It can be found at Home Depot. However, I would utilize WD-40 first, as corrosion will complicate removal. Simply saturate the offending handle and wait at least 1/2 hour before attempting to remove the handle.
