"Im trying to reinstall my crankshaft pulley but when I put it on, the woodruff key keeps falling off, I've tried glueing it in and using epoxy but nothing is working, what is the best way to install it?"
reads better
cos tbh, I read it as you were trying to glue the pulley on

turn the crank so you have the keyway uppermost.
That would be tdc

you trying to do it form the top, or is the rad out?? if its still in, take the rad/intercooler out to give better access, only takes 10 mins and a good excuse to clean out the rad and intercooler.

something worn perhaps??it should be a reasonably snug fit. as suggested turn crank to tdc with rad and intercooler out should give you he clearance you need, also what james said.would it not be a good idea to get a new woodruff key, just in case it is knackered??

as he said, TDC and a small dob of grease, summers gone now so it should be cold and sticky. Glue is only going to work if its clean, spotless clean
