      Any good tricks for removing a stuck glass sediment bowl?It’s on a 54 RD15 carb.

        I’d start out using a hair dryer set on high, and gently tap it with
        a soft hammer.

          remove it with the mounting and soak it in warm water for a few minutes or try some carb cleaner around the rim …. that should loosen things up

          careful with that hammer !!

            Crosbyman is right! Try a good soak in piping hot water. Any light taps should be with a tiny rubber mallet or wood.
