Anybody else have this happen to them before? I bought the Delrin model because I have a cheapy all black mod that I have been using at work lately so I don't worry about dropping my P+ anymore. (I still need to send it in for refinishing but just can't seem to part with it). I tried some other companies drip tips and they are not even close to what my Super T SS shorty is so I went ahead and bought a delrin one from Dave. This thing is a bit softer on the outside (plastic vs. SS) but definitely better quality than any Aluminum one I have. Unfortunately it is rammed into the end of my carto now and won't come out. I did find out that I could push it back through my tank no prob but I still can't fill it all the way up like I could using my tank filling device. Anyone out there got any tips on getting this thing out without having to tear up the carto and possibly the drip tip too? I got pretty strong fingers and this thing isn't budging. I did lube it with some juice before I put it in which I do with all my DT's.

Thanks,
CM

You can try putting it in the freezer for a few hours, i read about a member doing that once and it worked for them. Maybe put the carto in a vice after you remove it from the freezer and that way you can get max leverage on the tip, rock it back and forth as your are trying to remove it.
