I just got a used OMS tank with what appears to have a din/yoke valve with a V115 yoke adapter. Please see the attached picture. How do I go about removing the adapter? I tried to give it some push and it wouldn't budge. Does it normally take a lot of force to get it removed? Could it just be of old age and forever stuck. Am I destined to stick to yoke or getting a new valve?
