Could this be moved to Tutorials as it may be helpful in the future and easier to find there at a later date?

Well yea, thats a sign that they are clogged up and sticking. The tutorial basically tells you how to strip them, clean them and test them.

Did you just pull it out and the spring just comes out isit? Iv got them soaking in gunk so should come out relatively easy in the morning. I hope.

Cheers for the help tho

wont make it any easier, need some long noise mole grips and pull them out - there held in with a ring clip, and have to be forced out
