Cheers for the replies guys and very helpful... :thumbup
I'll try the WD40 flush first
before I'm forced to replace the barrel... :\
I just watched a YouTube clip of some guy removing an Ignition Barrel from an R6 (very similar to my gen1).
The bolts used to attach the barrel to the top yoke are snap off security bolts! :grumble The guy on YouTube used a Dremel (which I don't have!) to cut a slot in each bolt to get a flat blade screwdriver on it. Unfortunately he also had to add some high heat (which I also don't have!) to encourage unscrewing of bolt removal!
This looks to be quite an awkward job! >:
If there are any handy tips out there I'd be very grateful... :thumbup
