[QUOTE="Tazza, post: 2560, member: 82"] You could get away with not removing it. Remove all the oil you can from the cylinder by pushing the stick in and out from end to end, this should get 99% of the oil out. When it is being welded pull the stick all the way out, to keep the piston/seals away from the heat, leave it like that untill it cools. I doubt you will get enough heat into it to turn the oil to carbon. Honestly, for the price i would replace the seals, they are cheap and they will stop the bobtach creaping down which i'm sure it would after its hard life. This way you can clean the cylinder out before and after welding and peace of mind that there is no junk inside the cylinder. [/QUOTE]
