Icon5 Unable to remove VTC Solenoid (stuck)

Hi Everyone,

First post here for me, so thank you ahead of time for anyone who takes the time to assist. I have a 2005 Accord 2.4L.

I am attempting to diagnose some engine trouble and have narrowed it down to the vtc solenoid hopefully. My issue now is an inability to actually remove it from the engine block. I have removed the bolt with the middle ring thing, and disconnected the electrical cable. I can turn the solenoid clockwise about 45º from the original horizontal position of the electrical connector but can not actually pull the solenoid out.

Any advice would be greatly appreciated, thanks!!

How many bolts did you remove? There are 3 total that hold it to the block.
