I have a 2-3 Morse taper adapter stuck onto a #2 Jacobs chuck taper.
I tried tapping a Morse taper wedge into the side slot.

Can you see the tang end of the taper inside the slot? If so, retry the
wedge and give it a good rap or two or three. I've had them stick pretty
well, but when you drive the wedge hard enough, they'll pop out - as
long as you are sure the wedge is prying against the end of the taper.
