How can I remove the diverter mechanism from my Moen model 83267 shower/bathtub kit?

My diverter is next to unrealizable to turn -- it is very difficult. Moen is sending me a new diverter but I cannot consider out how to get the old one out.

I am not steadfast of the model number but most Moen's work the same. Once you take off the employ and the diverter is exposed, there is a clip that needs to be pulled off so the diverter cartridge) will fall back out. The clip pulls perpendicular to the operating you pull on the front of the cartridge.

The clip is mostly made of copper or brass. A needle nose pliers has always worked well for me.

How do I remove the cartridge from a Moen shower faucet if it's stuck?

Tried to do away with the cartridge from a Moen shower faucet (close to 20 years old) because it is leaking but I can't get the cartridge all the way out?? Any suggestions as to what might cure remove this without breaking it?

well I use a double of channel locks and grab the cheek stem and pry against the body part that holds the cartridge. First though a yoke things be sure to turn your Facetious Adam's ale to the faucet off and be sure you have pulled the fork group pin holding it in.
If it is twenty years old the cartridge assemblage is probably brass and it has almost bonded it self together.
If you look at the top of your cartridge you will see there are 2 places facing of each there that is taller than the rest of the top part. You need to try and get the cartridge to move. screwdriver and a hammer softly tapping. You may take a two of a kind of needle nose pliers and put them entrails the cartridge holding part of the faucet and try to get the cartridge to move that way.
It will awaken out but the key thing is get the cartridge to move. And also once you commit to it go on and get your replacement cartridge ready to put in.
I have installed 1000's of moen and worked on few ( 50 to 100 in 30 years and that is why they are OK champion enough to last 20 years.
