Cut a slit with a Dremel tool and use a flathead driver to back the screw out.

 

[nitrost]

many time, if you have a dremel cut a slot in it and use a flathead to remove it. btw your pic doesn't work. nevermind mw too quick. lol

 

[itsme]

Pic doesn't work, have you tried a little bit larger allen bit in it or even the same size torque bit those have given me some success in the past.

Ill Try That Monkey But Would That Work Bcoz Its Got Superglue Init ??



Has This Ever Happended To U B4 ????????????

I'm fairly confident it will cut through super glue, as it will cut through metal. Yes it has happened to me before.

Clamp on a vise grip. That should do it.

 

[Plaidfish]

that would be SUPER easy to use a dremel on....

 

[nitro_freak_123]

nah it aint working well i is but it keeps slipping out of it there seems to be loads of super glue in tha hole hope not


ill keep ya all posted if i get somewere wish me luck peeps lol

 

[Plaidfish]

the dremel WILL NOT just cut into it w/o guiding it...you have to control teh bit to cut what you want.....trust us it WILL cut into the screw w/ or w/o superglue.....BTW Don't use superglue....

 

[4u2nv]

yeah, whats the deal with superglue..lol... Try the dremel and use it like ya got a pair..lol.. Or else get a vise grip and clamp it on there. Should work.

They make make a needle nose version that would probaly work the best on that.



Good luck

Ok Screw out defintaly works.. Its wierd though... for something you would think to use bit #1 for .. you try #2 and it works.. I've never had a problem with screw out.. Ill admit its not easy.. but it does work.. and I swear by them for engine mount screws.. I had a 2mm allen key engine mount screw and it got smoked by a rock. It was impossible to remove. I did remove it though.

with screw out.. I recommend using a manual driver.. not a drill .. but a drill it will defintaly catch at like 5000 rpm.. lol I've never tried it.. the only problem with the manual is putting in enough force as well as having a snug handle on it.

Try tapping the screwdriver down into the slot so it wedges itself in, always worked for me on my tt engine mount bolts. Either that, or tap a Torx bit into the bolt head as mentioned already, another trick that has always worked in my favour.

As for needle nose "Vice Grip" pliers, i have a pair myself and would NOT be wihout them. One of the BEST tools to have to hand at ANY time for ANY thing (including opening drinks cans beleive it or not)
