Trying to remove power steering control valve from 68 Corvette. P/S cylinder has been removed as well as all hoses. Engine is out of car. Can not seperate control valve from pitman arm. I am using a ball joint seperator tool and do not have a torch , nor do I know how to use a torch. Using small sledge hammer and WD 40. Any other suggestions on how to get this thing out are much needed and would be much appreciated. Thanks in advance, Kurt Bunting 68 Coupe NCRS 26406

Hey Kurt:
Why didn't ya call on me, I'd have come in a minute. Go get yourself a three wing puller or a two wing for that matter, I think a two may be better in your case. rent or borrow one from local auto parts store, should come off with a couple of twists once attached and tightened.

Last year I did one of these and had to use a torch, even though I had all the proper tools. Only after getting it almost red hot did it come off. Good luckComment

A Pitman arm puller will easily remove it. Most auto stores and tool stores carry them. I slid a U shaped piece of 14ga steel between the puller and the arm to get a better hold on the arm. Popped right off. - DaveComment
