"this" being the choke pick up tube?
Yes it is a press fit but there's no reason to remove it unless it's split. The tiny hole in the end needs to be clear as that's where the fuel gets sucked up when the choke is on.

Hi, If you really want to remove it, to clean etc, i did mine by either soaking body in boiling water or using a hot air blower to warm body up so it will just pull out easily.
Do the reverse to put back in again, if using water method make sure you blow air through all orifices to expel any trapped water.
Ensure all is fully clean before rebuilding.
