Thanks all, I got it out through the top with a little pushing and
squeezing. Now that it's out and I've removed the old large outer rubber
gasket I noticed that the adapter comes with a washer like gasket that is
much smaller and fits in the inner ring of the adapter. Do I also need a
new large one for the outer gasket?
Thanks,
Mark
