Hi Y'all,

I'm having a problem with my '95 urS6.  Cylinder #2 is not firing.  I am
reasonably sure that I've traced the problem to a faulty channel on the PSO
(power stage output).  I am trying to use the spare channel of the PSO for
cylinder #2.  All that I need to do is to move two wire plugs from one
connector to another.  I know which wires I want to move and that I will
need to lengthen one wire enough to be able to do the move.  No problem.  A
simple butt splice will take care of that.

My problem is this: how do I get the plug out of the connector?  I have
peeled back the black rubber boot and have exposed the "wire side" of the
connector.  I have removed the innards of the connector from the external
portion.  Now I'm trying to pull the wire and its individual plug (socket)
from the gang of three (or four depending on which connector).  It looks
obvious.  There is what looks like a little spring "snap" preventing the
plug from pulling out of the gang assembly.  Simply depress the "snap" and
the wire/terminal should just pull out.  Yeah.  Right.  It doesn't budge.

Proper technique?  Suggestions?  Duh?

TIA,
Bob
