Just did ours also (1275cc Sprite) and finally ended up using a small slide
hammer to remove the nylon guide.
Just be carefull not to score the cylinder wall when screwing in the
hammer's spike.
My kit (from Moss, with apologies to Frank) included a new nylon guide bearing.
Good luck. Hope this helps.
