Broken and stuck manitou fork adjuster help

[ishaw]

Tidying the garage today and came across a set of forks I forgot I had. I thought I'd check the elastomers condition and went to unscrew the top cap, but it just spun underneath the adjuster. Removing the adjuster confirmed my fear, the top section was not attached to the bottom, so the lower part is captive.

2 questions.

1. How can I get this out?
2. Can I get a spare adjuster

I probably have a similar manitou fork that is non working and could be used for spare parts. Where do you live? What model is the fork? You can try griping the inside of the cap with pliers and twisting it out. You should probably spray inside with WD40 of PB blaster or something first.
