[R-390] Looking For Suggestions - Stuck Slug

I think I would refrain from anything like WD40 as it can degrade the coil
form.

I had the same problem a few months ago.  I tried to use a metal allen
wrench and, of course, broke the slug.  I ended up ordering another from
Fair.

I have seen suggestions to heat the coil, and other suggestions to put a
couple of drops of wd40.  Next time I think I will use heat as the first
resort.  Hair dryer?
