I am being cheap, once again, and don't want to replace it if I can avoid doing so. I thought about squirting WD40 or PB blaster or even KY in there...but my common sense tells me it's not such a good idea Last edited by SVZETEC; 05/22/06 07:44 PM. 1999 Sportage 4x4...don't go there, it was free ....______o_o .../_l l__\____\ ..\|--l l__----[]\\|/[] .....................oo =( )_)----( )_)--)_)

I guess if I WD40 it & clean it real good it shouldn't hurt...I dunno I hope you didn't eat too much vag this weekend, you'll get a stomach ache & your face will break out. 1999 Sportage 4x4...don't go there, it was free ....______o_o .../_l l__\____\ ..\|--l l__----[]\\|/[] .....................oo =( )_)----( )_)--)_)

Roll back the inner edge of the grip enough so you can get the nozzle kinda under it and then shoot the air in there while sliding it off. Apparently that's the way the shops do it. 2000 SVT Turbo 295hp/269ftlb@12psi #1 for Bendix Brakes Kits! Knuckles rebuilt w/new bearings $55 AUSSIE ENDLINKS $70 Gutted pre-cats $80/set A lack of planning on your part does not constitute an emergency on mine!
