Breather tube removal from IH
Ever need to remove a breather tube from an IH? You can heat the hell out of it then scratch it up trying to pull it out, or go to Autozone and get and OEM brand......blind hole puller(no thats not code for a handy through a hole in the mens room)
Use the largest puller 27128, and a few whacks with the slide hammer and its out......sweet! This tool is also great for pulling our pilot bearings, you can have them out in 5 minutes or less.

Re: Breather tube removal from IH
Which tube? The large ones under the plenum, or the smaller sharp 90-degree ones on the exterior side? I have to say, neither seemed to require any special tools.

Re: Breather tube removal from IH
I agree with aurora. I didn't use anything special to remove them when I did it.

Re: Breather tube removal from IH
The ones under the plenum can be hard to take out, I imagine it viries from car to car, but the hole puller takes three wacks and no damage...
