Hi all.
I've run into some trouble trying to remove my engine. The transmission shift linkage cone screw is severely ceased and the allen nut was rounded. I tried liquid wrench, cutting a slot and using a screw driver, heat, welding a nut (it just fell off every time), beating a torx bit into it and that stripped the rest of it. Any other ideas? |

I had a similar problem. I used an Easy-Out, but had to drill the cone screw in order to get the right size hole so it would bite. I ended up with the cone piece still in front shirt rod and had to drill that out separately after I slid the coupler off. Fortunately, new cone screws are readily available and I didn't mess up the threads in the coupler.
