yeah iam going to call a few shops and see if they can get it out .I may need to get another head from the junk yard.depending on wich is cheapper.
I've heard of two ways but never tried it myself.
First method is to install a grease or air fitting at the base of the lifter column and pop it out from underneath (wear eye protection!!!)
Second method is to use a screw extractor and penetrating oil to pull it out. If you try this, I'm curious to know what diameter extractor works best.
Hope this helps. Good luck.
