Motometer repairs

Any words of wisdom on replacing a red tube assy. in a full size motometer?
I bought a replacement , but how do you get the old one out?
I would assume that it is threaded into the circle base.
I tried turning but no luck! Should I heat it up ??
Thanks!!!
 
1st, what is the problem with the one in the meter? The tube is set in a hard cement. Once you get the end of the cover off you have to dig it out with a dental pick.
 
Thanks to all!
I have an old one that is broken off.
I will remove and replace with new one .
I wonder if body filler (BONDO) would be a good choice of adhesive?
Thanks all!
Steve
 
Not sure Bondo would be good only because of the heat. It wouldn't be my first choice any way. Look for some adhesive that's 1: somewhat heat resistant and 2: will adhere to metal
