How do i get the fuel pump impulse line spiggot out of my crankcase? It's a ski doo 800 ho. It's locked in there with a loctite sleeve retaining compound. I have broke it off and there is only a small amount sticking out. Now i'm stuck. Should i try an easy out? I have a hand held impact drive, use that with a modified easy out? Will heat help? Any advice would be helpful. Thanks.

find something metal that fits inside the spiggot them grab the spiggot with vise grips [ not made in china ones ] you sandwigde the spiggot between metal rod and vise grips wiggle it back and forth it should come out

You might be able to tap it (use grease on the tap to try to catch the filings) then thread a bolt/screw into it to grab onto and yah I'd heat it a little.

You may wind up splitting the cases and tapping it out from the inside.
