It comes out pretty easy. Just take the sprocket off and it's readily accessible. Punch a couple of holes in its face with an awl biased toward its outer diameter. Thread a couple of sheet metal screws into it only far enough to grab it and yank on them to get it out. Be careful because you only have .200 space between it and the output bearing. One thing to make sure is that it has the slim o-ring sealing the sleave on the shaft. If not, that could be your source of leaking. <p></p><i></i>
