thats what I tought but it seems to be attached to sometning feels like a spring if you pull on it, it snaps bak if you turn left or right it sprigs back maybe not pulling hard enough just afraid to screw it up. Thanks, Scott

Try pulling it out a little bid and then turning it first one way and then the other to make the spring inside shrink a little. When I did mine the spring stayed inside and I had to use a small ninty degree scribe to get it out. I just threaded the scribe all the way down until it too came loose. Good Luck!!!!!!!!!!!!

Thanks thats the ticket, pull out and twist counter-clockwize needs that pressure when you turn it. Thanks for the help, Scott O&O
