Cheers,How do I knock it in all directions, I can get it halfway up the sleeve and it jams, like if it's stuck on the last bit of the meshed gears, will let you know if I need your spare one

just about 15' rotationally, the gear is a helical cut so it won't come straight up it needs to turn, don't ask me which way, but if you look at the procedure in haynes or bentley for fitting it.......removal is the opposite
