Durf4693 Posted December 10, 2013 Report Share Posted December 10, 2013 Trying to check packing in silencer , cannot get the tip off after removing the snap ring. It's glued on from old rich exhaust dried up like tar. Should I soak it in mineral spirits or something ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SAVAGE420 Posted December 10, 2013 Report Share Posted December 10, 2013 Throw it in the freezer or snow bank over night. Will pop right off. Or try some pipe butter. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Coupelx Posted December 10, 2013 Report Share Posted December 10, 2013 I usually soak them in gas. It softens the burnt spooge to make cleaning easier. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
