i meant .28
 
Dont know if it will work with the picco but with my 3.3 I just run a zip tie up the exhaust port and then just turn the crank to raise the piston up and it will pinch the zip tie and push the sleeve out.
 
I will give it a go when I get a chance. Anybody else have any ideas that I could try if Joshman idea fails
 
If the zip tie doesn't work throw it in the oven at 350* for 10 min or so, the case will expand and loosen up you should be able to get it out then.

(this is how I change rear bearings but works on stuck sleeves as well)
