Use small piece of rubber hose on a screwdriver to get it back started again, then adjust as needed. Sounds like you got really lucky fishing it out of the pump

i'll have to try that maybe apiece of vaccum tubing or something and man i know! i'm not even sure how it happened i was tightening the locknut down and when i went to pull the ratchet out it came out too and hell the lock nut wasn't tight when i opened it up either not even close i could turn it with the tip of my finger before i started

I have dropped a piece or two in the pump from time to time :-laf



It sure is a sick feeling in your stomach



Good luck,
