Hey guys first tube came out easy but the second tube won't budge. Replacing the baffle boards and need to get that guy out.

Any reccomendations?

Thanks!
 
From the manual:

Removal

1. With a set of vise-grips, grasp the front baffle tube on the right, slightly away from the baffle air assembly.

While squeezing tightly, use a hammer to hit the pliers and pull the tube to the right to disengage the tube from the hole on the left. Allow the tube to hang freely from the hole on the right.

2 Repeat step #1 for second baffle tube.
 
Yea I tried that. Read the book a few times. I've pulled the first tube out in the past it has come out easy each time. Number 2 however will not budge.
 
Spray the ends with some WD40 or PB Blaster and let it penetrate. Then try again.
