Wash out Pin removal on spectra.

[Zman39]

Hey all.


I need to replace my washout pins on my spectra. Are they just press fit there or is there a special way to remove and insert new ones?
Thanks

Mike,
Heat the side of the head block with a small torch. Then use some pliers and grip the pin. You should be able to pull them out of the head block. They are basically a press fit. May have some loctite, that would be the reason to heat the block also.

I'd rather see you use a heat gun than a blow torch. Only reason is that it works just as well but does not discolor metal from the flame like a torch would.
