You can use pliers or tweezers to pull the wick out of the lighter and cut the excess off.
For a new wick pull the lighter from the case and remove all of the cotton. Insert the new wick downward from the top and pull through with pliers or tweezers until the wick is the same height as the chimney. Replace cotton and slide back into the case.
That is how you change a Zippo wick!
