Hello,

The inner exhaust tube got rotten and water was going into exhaust housing.

The top part of shifting rod got stock it housing hole.

I tried to soak it with W-40 and pull it and hammer it. It does not move.
I have whole housing dissasembled now and the only part I could not get out is this rod.

Is there any trick?

How does it sit in a housing?

Is there any bushing?

It is all covered with black "dirt"

Thanks.
