You guys know what Im talking about? its the oil control orfice in vtec blocks that is sitting flush with the deck. How do I pull that sucker out? I would post pics but I need you to show me how! thanks

non-VTEC

take a mini pick tool and pull it out.......or use a screw and gently thread it in by hand a little and pull it out..

there is some resistance from the o-ring so you might have to pull kinda hard. if the o-ring seal is damaged make sure you replace it.

If the orifice has threads, you can use a M5x.8 bolt or screw to thread it in and pull it out.

If not, then I usually just use a pair of thin needle nose pliers and expand them inside the orifice and wiggle it out.

I think I'll try the pick idea, this oil orfice has no threads unlike the 2 orfices in the head! The whole reason for pulling the orifce is so I can replace that o-ring as the book says to do.
