JumboJetDreams Posted January 18, 2010 Share Posted January 18, 2010 I have a four hose hookah that I hadn't used for a while and I took it out to smoke it today. Last time I smoked it there had only been three people so I put a cap on the fourth hole. Now, the ball bearing is stuck in one of the hose adapters, and I can't get any of the adapters or the cap to come off. I know how to fix the bearing once I get the adapter off. I tried running it under hot tap water and then using a rug pad to unscrew it, but that didn't work. Any suggestions? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chreees Posted January 18, 2010 Share Posted January 18, 2010 Pliers and electrical tape so you don't scratch anything? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sonthert Posted January 18, 2010 Share Posted January 18, 2010 Mushy suggested in another thread for another idea to throw the shank in the freezer and see if that unseizes that cover. I would also suggest gently using pliers with a towel wrapped around the cover to try and unstick it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
