Brian, have you access to an oxy-acetylene torch? Jobs like that broken set screw can be done by using the brazing tip and heating the area around the set screw red hot , then dousing with cold water, this breaks the rust and the screw should turn out...not withstandind that it is broken off, if there is enough of the screw left to get a hold of with a needle nose it should turn out. Some penetrating oil will really work now that the rust is broken. If there is not enough screw to get a bite on a very fine picking chisel just might turn the screw in its hole until you can grab on. Failing all this, you're back to easy outs. If you have to drill and use these extractors, the key is to centre punch the screw before you starts to drill, the more centered the hole the better the easy out will work. I would still heat and cool if I was doing it this way. I just did one of these set screws on the fan belt on one of my H's. I was lucky that the screw was in tact, but it was so siezed in that it wouldn't budge..turns in and out nicely now..I'm a "hot wrench" fan,heat it red, douse it with lots of water and you can take anything apart..good luck...Mike in Exeter Ontario
