dint you need needle nose pliers to get it out? like you grip it then unscrew it?

**Kdrx1** · July 25th, 09:44 PM

Yes. It can be more difficult Put it in boiling water to get off the sticky stuff... then try.

**Brutus106** · July 25th, 09:46 PM

ok i need to find some pliers first..
should i take off the rings on the bolt first before putting it in water?

**ChaosTheory** · July 25th, 09:46 PM

yes, what u need to go is take out the bolt and use the needlenose pliers and see if u can to unscrew the venturi if it wont come out u take off the orings that are on the bolt and where the venturi screw in at u take a lighter and heat it up, dont worry it wont hurt the bolt, and that will loosen up the loctite that is on it. then unscrew it, replace the orings and your all done.

ok ill try it with the bioling water, brb

(woops i have to pause my ATHF dvd first)

**ChaosTheory** · July 25th, 09:50 PM

i think a lighter will work much better, but i would suggest trying to unscrew the venturi first because it may not even be glued in. and you will just be wasting time.

also the reason venturi's were added to some bolts was because it was supposed to make the air have equal pressure on the ball to prevent breaks and to be more accurate. but with the venturi off u save gas and after 2 inches into the barrel the pressure is already equal on the ball so all the venturi does really is waste gas.

if u have any other questions i should be able to help u

i cant even fit the pliers i have into the spaces, the pliers are a little to fat.

btw its a tl plus bolt

**ChaosTheory** · July 25th, 10:11 PM

the pliers are very thing like 1 cm thick at max, if your dad has some tools ask him im sure he has a pair somewhere. but the nose on them is very small

**Brutus106** · July 25th, 10:17 PM

no, i have needle nose pliers but there think at the end

thats a link that also tells how to do it and has pics. if u scroll down a little was your will see a pic with needlenose plyers and the plyers on the bottom are the kind u need.

dont use a lighter it leave dirty soot. Boil or use a gas powered torch. u need strong thin needle nose pliers. if you dont have any you can get some for like $3 at a tool store.

**Brutus106** · July 25th, 10:54 PM

is there anyother way to take it out besides units pliers? cause i dont have any that fit

**ChaosTheory** · July 25th, 10:59 PM

not that i know of unless u can find something small and strong to unscrew it with. and whoopdee doo if it leaves dirty silt on it, how hard is it to take a rag and wipe it off or just run it under water.

**stupidlikeaf0x** · July 28th, 01:05 AM

You can use two drill bits and pliers. That's how SBM says to do it. Read about it here.

**Brutus106** · July 28th, 01:39 AM

ahh nice ill try that right now (2:45 am

)

**[^_^x]** · July 28th, 07:57 AM

**Javaman** · July 28th, 08:11 AM

Or you could use two allen wrenches.

**GlocksRock** · July 28th, 12:01 PM

I took both venturi's out of my spyders, they both came out real easy. But I haven't shot it since I took them out, so I can't comment on the performance.
