My valve will not come out of the power tube. Anyone happen to have a guess of why?

First make sure nothing is screwed into it, or there are no obstrucions blocking it.

It probaly will not come out because some Loctite seeped up between it and the valve and hardened. You can either push really really hard through the front with a screwdriver, or run it under hot water then push (more practical wat). The hot water should loosen it up a little and get it freed up. Dont worry about getting any in your valve. It will shoot right out. Its usually not very easy to remove the valve from the PT anyway.

Take a pencil (eraser end) and slide it through front end of the power tube and push out the valve.
