Anyone have any favorite techniques for removing stripped screws? was doin some basic stuff to the ol' celi today, replacing the pcv valve, dist cap and rotor. everything was goin great till i got to the dist rotor. why there are screws in this thing in the first place i'll never understand, but i got one screw out no prob. on the second one, the screw driver slipped outta my hand and damn near desintigrated the screw top. so now i'm lost. any ideas or help would be much appreciated.

i think hes talking about the rotor, which has those 2 screws set in i believe.
you might have to drill it out with an easy out set. This post has been edited by brianforster: Jun 1, 2007 - 6:00 PM |
