lynn jones Posted October 31, 2005 Share Posted October 31, 2005 i'm sure you can just drill it out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nolan Posted October 31, 2005 Share Posted October 31, 2005 Try squirting a little "Liquid Wrench" on the broken stub and let it soak for a couple of minutes. Then use compressed air (100PSI min.) to blow it out. Hold the air gun so it blows straight down into the stub, but is not touching the frame or stub. The compressed air will generally blow the liquid around the sides of the stub and into the bottom of the hole lifting the broken stub out of the hole. Nolan Skilled, but otherwise unremarkable.
