    A note to old forum members...
    I receive numerous requests from people who can no longer log in because their accounts were deleted. As mentioned in the forum FAQ, user accounts are deleted if you haven't logged in for the past 6 months. If you can't log in, then create a new forum account. If you don't get an error message, then check your email account for an activation message. If you get a message stating that the email address is already in use, then your account still exists so follow the instructions in the forum FAQ for resetting your password.

    Have you forgotten your password or have a new email address? Then read the forum FAQ for details on how to reset it.

    Any email requests for "can't log in anymore" problems or "lost my password" problems will be deleted. Read the forum FAQ and follow the instructions there - that's what we have one for...

  • Returning Visitors

    If you are a returning visitor who never received your confirmation email, then odds are your email provider is blockinig emails from our server. The only thing that can be done to get around this is you will have to try creating another forum account using an email address from another domain.

    If you are a returning visitor to the forum and can't log in using your old forum name and password but used to be able to then chances are your account is deleted. Purges of the databases are done regularly. You will have to create a new forum account and you should be all set.

So I am aware this is common, so without completely ruining everything with my nit-wit hands, I just want to know if there are any clever new methods of removing this pesky guy.

I am aware of: Using propane heat, heat/cooling, ez outs, left handed drill, drilling and using torx, and using lubes like PB (which I have been using))

So anyway, I'm on the verge of having a longer night than expected if i twist one more time with a flat head.

Also, I'll have to go out and buy anything other than "common items/tools." All I have is pb blaster and a variety of common tools and heads.

Oh last thing- I'm broke! So I perfer the 'ol reliable' poor man's method. But yeah yeah yeah I know, it's good to invest in such tools.. you know what I mean. :o


Here's an image:
 
You have everything else out, throw it in the dip.
Can't hurt, might help loosen the jet.
 
What's a great brand of dip for this? Anything specifically specific?
 
Got the booger out with some valucraft carb cleaner spray. Came out looking gnarly but worked.. well. Sweet.

 
Its the small things....lol
Congrats, you didn't have to throw any wrenches. :p
