So I tried to replace the o-rings on the push rod tubes. I was able to pull 3 out of the 8 tubes using pliers but I cannot believe that there is not an easier and more efficient way of pulling those tube out. Not saying that using pliers, even when being careful, there is a risk of damaging the tube.
Does anyone know of a tool to get them out? I would see some kind of expanding device that fits inside of the tube with a kind of slide hammering device to get them out. I am pretty sure that someone that does this routinely will have a tool! |
