Cam Chain Tensioner Knob Stuck?
I'm replacing the seals in my cam chain tensioner and the knurled knob seems to be stuck. I removed the nut holding it in place, but it wont come off. Once the 10 nut on the outside of the knob is removed, should the knob just pull off? I'm following the tutorial by Bwringer and i'm on step 6...

I just wanted to make sure I wasn't going to hurt anything by using a little force. I wound up having to clamp some vice grips on the knob and tap it off with a hammer... sucker was on there good. All seals in the tensioner are replaced and it has at least slowed the oil leak. :-) Thanks guys.
