Default help, pilot screw screwed

My pilot screw is striped and siezed. How do i get it out. There is nothing for the screwdriver to turn anymore. Can it be drilled out? I tried heating it, tap it with a hammer and punch, but it didn't even wiggle. Then the brass snapped off and there is no place for the anything to turn it and its to deep to try and cut a new slot in it. Any one know how to possably fix this?[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-blush.gif[/img][img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-frown.gif[/img]

use an EASOUT bit.(they look like drill bits,but with reverse thread action so when you turn them COUNTER clock-wise they actually are diging in the the metal). You can find them at Wal-mart or just about anywhere. just make sure to turn it slowly,and deliberate.


Good luck.
