Trying to pull out the tube with a set of needle nose inserted and opened up, I cracked/broke the tube. Does the broken pieces of plastic in there pose any danger?
Follow-up: The broken piece seems to be a perfect fit into the tube. So *if* any bits of plastic made it's way into the camshaft area, they're very very small.
Thanks Pelican for supplying all the parts I used this weekend to do my 60K service! Your technical articles and 101 Projects book really made it fairly easy to accomplish.
