Technique for removing ACV check valve?
I can't remove that weird round check valve behind the ACV. Is it supposed to just pry out? Mine seems stuck. Any tips?

That's weird. Mine just came right out, I used a little flathead screwdriver with a towel on the end to pry it out... if it's still hard to get out, just spray some silicone lube/WD-40 on it and it should come right out...

OK thanks. I'll try again. It seems to be stuck due to sooty buildup.
