Supradoopa Posted April 8, 2007 Share Posted April 8, 2007 I've just got some shiny cam covers from Colin But... I've looked at Tony's guide on how to take them off... but the bl**dy covers are stuck on they won't shift i've tried a screwdriver (not that there's space to get it in) i've tried wacking them but still they won't budge. Can anyone give me some tips on how to get these pita covers off. Cheers Pete Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ric Posted April 8, 2007 Share Posted April 8, 2007 mine were pretty solid, get a flat blade inbetween the seal, with some tape round the end, then twist the driver so it forces them apart. Its pretty daunting but they do come off, be firm If you've not had them off before you might wanna put some new rocker seals in too, as they will have turned hard and crack as soon as you try to take them out of your old ones.
