Re: Rat repair.
Late start after work, realized I still had to go get the EX-3 extractor, more kroil and heat, 3 times no budging it, drilled it up a bit more, repeat, nope! Drill up to 1/4", more heat and oil, nope! Brought out the chisel, center punch and a sharpened drill bit and started chipping away at it, tried to start a tap got a little ways then because the hole was off a little on the back side it dislodged it a little so I tapped it out from the back side then ran the tap through it, figure I got about 75% of the original thread remaining. That only took me 2.5 hours including the trip to the hardware store.
