Hi all.. Is there any tips or tricks on getting the coppers washers out?
I cannot for the life of me get it out.. Cant even get it to spin. And I'm out of ideas ):
Any help would be really appreciated.
Thanks
Mike

Get a sharp screwdiver, and hammer into one side of it. When it becomes thin you can bend it into the centre. They are absolute bastards, this comes from years of reusing them and they just get more squashed in the head haha.

Get a flat blade screwdriver, and place it vertically against the washer, and hit it downwards. It will buckle the washer then you can pry it out

Get them from Peugeot, they aren't expensive.
