Default Help!!! Removing the oil bridge tube for chain tensioner!!!!
I can't get this little bad boy out. I tied pulling, but it doesn't want to come out. Is it that hard to pull? Any idea to get it out? I am replacing the o rings. Name: image.jpeg Views: 368 Size: 1.07 MB

I'd have expected it to just pull out. Are you having the same problem on both?

I tried pulling it. I was expecting it to just pop out, but it is not. Yes, both are stuck. I can wiggle it, but it won't come off. Any idea to get it out?

Had the same issue but you just have to get a firm grip on them and pull hard. It's the seal on the other end that makes it hard to get out.

I put a rag around it and grabbed it with some channel-lok pliers and tugged it out. It's the O-ring inside that needs to come loose.
