Well it so stuck. So far I have had the RH crank arm resting on a block of wood with bak of the pin sitting over a hole drilled into the wood. The BB sheel sit on another block of wood to keep the bike stable. I have a socket over the RH cotter pin thread and a wide punch going through (to stop it slipping off and damagin myself on the chainring) and I have hit the punch as hard as dare with a hammer several times. It is not budging. Suprisinly the cotter pin has not bent either.
I have got plug gas on it too but that is no help either. I do not have a cotter pin press as I cannot find one for sale.
So any other bright ideas on how to get this thing out.
Silly me I swapped to a lump hammer and hit harder than I dared and it came out slowly.
I hate cotter pins.
