Help please, cant get the tappetts out :(
As i just changed the cambelt, i figured i may as well change my tappetts as the old ones sounded like a bag of nails since i put the cam in, but they just wont come out, they move freely enuff when the pully is turned but wont come out at all, I got one out and fitted the new one which moves fine and comes out no probs, but cant move the others, I took one of the old ones apart and used a pliers to grip it and yank it out, but like the others they wont move past a certain lenght, any one got any ideas please?
