[Vwdiesel] stick stuck in cylinder

[brian hoeft]

Sigh..

To your question, yes. I'd say that's a bad idea.

The other problem with burning it is that it's probably all the more
settled in place, and like mashing, or mushing, will only make more of what
you don't want,, stuff in the cyl.

If i'm correct Panera Bread(tm) has the smallest usable straws that helped
me sleeve a tiny guide when pressing seals over, and might be small enough
for you to poke until you find good suction.

Do you REALLY even know how big the piece is? Or is this the opposite of a
fish story where he says it's this____big, and it's really
T_H_I_S___________________B_I_G.  Saying,  if it won't find an easy exit
you'll be re-sealing a cylinder head... Or eff something up.

If it is small enough to leave out of the injector or GP hole and set in
place, you may be able to free it with a blow gun or fish around with some
nice dental pick.. but dont make it worse by turning the engine getting to
overzealous with your blow-gun (HOLD THE CRANK) or turn the crank with any
more stuff in it.
