can't remove pilot screw tips

[achim1313]

ok....Im having a heck of a time removing these tips. I can't get any of them out. i've used acetone/atf mix for a lube and nothing...always been able to get stuff with that mix but these aren't budging. any suggestions? is it worth sending them to someone to do before I mess up something.

The way I did it was....

HEAT!

Use a small propane pencil torch and heat them up...

Use a "tighten-loosen" approach...back and forth a little at a time.

But get them pretty hot...

I hope this helps...
