Just been removing the auto box solenoids from the breaker 2.6 but the roll pins wouldn't shift, I removed the whole valve block in the end and managed to knock them through but the solenoids wont shift ! 2 questions:

A. How are you supposed to remove roll pins without wrecking them???
B. Is there something else holding the solenoids in other than the roll pins?

A. Should just be a "twist & pull" action with decent grips.
B. Nope

you get a set of punches-bit like center punches but no point on them and then its simples

Yep just knock them out and replace with new (cost pence)

Cheers guys, I was hoping to avoid dropping the valve block when installing them over but wil have to if the pins don't budge easily. Where to buy new pins from though?

I think they are called pin punches and you can get sets of different diameters
