Hi Nelson
I did this this weekend, if you move the selector until it is out of the
detent position, ie it is not locked in a position, then find a screwdriver
that just grips the inside diameter of the cup then twist, the spring will
push the cup out if you are lucky. I was three out of three, so this
officially works! ;-)

Subject: Pressed in plugs in gearbox top cover
|
| I'm replacing the selector shaft seals on a late TR6 gearbox. The plugs
| retaining the detent balls & springs are the pressed in type. There was
| something on the list the other day on this subject but I can't find it
now.
|
| How does one remove the plugs? My plan is to drill a small hole in the
plug
| and insert a sheet metal screw and then pry up on the screw head. Any
| better ideas?
