I had the same problem on my 88 hatch.
I just removed the starter and wedged a small crowbar to hold it in place.
then I took a huge pole and it pull loose real quick.
good luck

 

dont do that youll fuck up the teeth on the flywheel and then fuck up your starter ! *shacks head* IMPACT !!!! or get the honda tool and a big ass pry bar OR heres what we did once



get a block of wood about the level of the crank ! there is a lil slot in the shroud put a long ass extension on the crank so it sticks out about 1-2 feet clearing the fender put the wrench on the block of wood like a axis point and put a long ass freagiong pipe on the wrench and pull down youll get mad leverage from the block of wood ! but we had a 3 foot breaker bar too andmy fat ass jumping on it !

 

Honda makes a $100 tool that is a 52mm opening that sits in the crank pulley.

You use it to stop the crank pulley from moving while using a braker bar.
