    Ignition cylinder......

    Jesus... I can't for the life of me get this damn ignition cylinder out. It's an '87, with the small hole at the end to stick a wire/small rod into.

    Ok,

    1) Key goes in
    2) Turn ~60 degrees (Acc I assume)
    3) Stick something into the hole
    4) Doesn't move at all....

    I've been trying to get this out for about an hour, and I can't get anywhere. I've been trying everything, and no matter what I do I can't get it out.

    I've been wiggling it, trying different positions, but nothing works :dot:

    All I can say is... keep trying. You have to be fairly exact on that whole 60* thing, and sometimes a paper clip isn't strong enough to push in all the way.

      I used a really small allen key.

        I've tried using an allen key as well as a small drill bit. Nothing seems to work. I'm pushing like crazy in every position and it wont go....
