to drop it off. I hope I can do so tomorrow.

Tim, if you get to the point where you *have* to use a screw extractor

Problem is, I can't get a drill in front of this bolt to drill a pilot

This is the best. I have found no better penetrating oil. And remember heat,
patience and time are your friends when working with broken bolts.

My 123 isn't home to look at, but could you get the drill in there if

Well I've gone about it a different way. We don't have Kroil up here,
so I picked up some Gunk Liquid Wrench penetrating oil. Didn't help at
