I have discovered a powertorque engine on a mower had the plug guard ramp missing and I hand found a spare on a wreck. How do I remove it and then attach it? I have tried to remove it already and I have only managed to pivot it by the edge. I don't want to force anything and break it.

Ahh, if only victa had kept producing the thumblatch catcher series, they would be in better shape today!
