So i was replacing my CCT last night with a new OEM one, and when my friendwas handing it to me he pulled out the little pin that extended the rod. Is there any way to get that rod back in where it was or am i screwed and need to buy a new one?

 

when you pull the pin, you have about 8 seconds to throw the cctl before it explodes...muhahahah..

stick the pin back in there, feel for a groove (like a flat head screwdriver)...then turn it clockwise, the cctl shaft will retract, then push the pin in so that the --- on the pin falls into one of the crevice on the + on the rear of the cctl where the pin goes in.

 

Hey Tahoe, Can that pin that comes with Oem Replacement CCTL's Be used as the Tool they show you in the manual? (For removing the CCTL?

 

muhhhhahahhaah...yea mang! it's the same thing only flimsier! i kept mines just for that reason or you can spend what like $5 for it or was it like 15...can't remember.
i let abadfish use it and he never sent it back...

 

That pin is kinda short and flimsy to use as a tool. Just stick a small screwdriver in there, wind it up, then hold the piston so it doesn't go back out when you remove the screwdriver, and put the pin back in. No biggy!

 

And i"ve been using a piece of pop can and a small screwdriverthis whole time.
