but how!?!

for example - pin on float - in carb -
how do you actually remove it?

big screw on solenoid - head sheared on one side - how to shift it now?

if a 'screw extractor' - how do they actually work? electric drill - pilot first?

as always - all ideas and comments welcome -

solenoid - just drill off the head leave the screw intact so there's a stub to get hold of once the solenoid is removed, i think only the solenoid is tapped

i'll have a look inside a carb, but that's in the care of SyncroAndy at the mo; I picked one up for a customer at VF but hadn't got room on my push bike for everything , it'll be a few days before I see it again

someone else should be able to help though
