T500 barrel

Post by karlee1433 »

Hi all the right hand cylinder barrel on my t500 is stuck on the studs I have poured white vinegar down the holes and left overnight. Any other tricks or shall I give it longer.

A bit of heat and GENTLY tap with a rubber mallet alternating between the inlet stubb and exhaust front and back. Don't hit the fins obviously 8-)

A quote from my old dad 8-)
