ignition barrel studs

Post by grumpyfrog »

I know a few of you have done some replacements this year, so with removing the studs, do they need drilled out, or do they eventually screw out if I cut a slot in them? If so are they normally threaded?

Drill a hole in the center and use a screw extractor

Or

Use a pin punch, make a deep dent in the outer most edge of the head, then use the punch , angled in the dent to turn the screw counter clockwise.. Mind the miss with a hammer of slip of a punch that bashes the triple.

It always does.

If not, the even bigger bigger hammer does.

It's not falling off, it's an upgrade opportunity.
