Subject:      Stuck Lock Cylinder - Sliding Door
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii

This is on an '87 westy.

The lock cylinder inside my sliding door handle is stuck, I think from
decades of gunge slowly solidifying.  I took the handle off and tried
squirting the lock full of lubricants with no luck.  So now I want to
take out the lock cylinder to clean it up.

Bearing in mind that everything is rusted, frozen, and generally stuck,
how should I try to get the lock cylinder out?

Thanks!!
