Hey, how the hell do you remove an nova mk1 gear knob, whats the best and easiest way, p.s i dont really wanna cut down the lever!!!, thanx guys, chris
take a good firm grip of you knob and give it a bloody good pull till something comes off in your hand
if not try some lubrication that stuff really works
hacksaw the top off the nob, then cut it up the side wit a knife then jus rip it off lol

:o sounds painful!
I used a junior hacksaw to cut the plastic section off!
BUT, prefer to give my knob a good yank!
:lol:
ahhhhhhhhh the monthly how do i pull off my knob gags are in evidence
real advice: as stated cut it in half then sort of wrestle it off
'funny' advice: my knob was proper hard to pull off, even using tools, i had to twist it and yank it all over the shop lol
the thing is the guys a newbie its his first post 2 whats he gonna think :lol:

I un-bolted the gear linkage and droped the hole lot out (only 5 bolts and quick 5-10 min job) and took an angle grinder to it! lol :lol:
cut about 2 inchs off aswell

^^^lol, slight overkill methinks
just junior hacksaw it off. you only lose about two centimetres of shaft (snigger)
:lol:
only takes two minutes

And dave said I went a bit overkill on it, at least I didn't set it on fire!! :o
just put a lighter underneath it and burn the glue. or get some grips and twist it off, easy. put some elbow grease into things. stop asking q's!
sorry, didnt mean to be harsh.
