This is exactly what the service manual tells you to do.
The WRONG thing is to get right over it and yank hard. One of two things will happen:
1. If you have a Ranger (and your face isn't in the way -- see #2), you'll throw it out the back window.
2. You'll whack yourself in the face. Or whatever other body part happens to be there.
When they give, they tend to give suddenly....
My friend had the #1 done to his nose. So part of the job included cleaning up the blood. Luckily, it wasn't in a Ranger but a Honda Civic.
