So I've been adjusting the jetting on my new KDX 220 quite a bit, and the nut that holds the needle in is now seized. I've been very careful in not cross-threading it, but never applied anti-sieze compound to the threads as has been recommended in this forum. :bang: Now the thing is stuck bad, and the nut portion rounds off when I put my 6mm socket on it. Has anyone been through this and gotten it out? I am thinking of filing a groove in the top to put a big flat-blade screwdriver into, and then if it snaps, drilling it and trying an easy-out. The metal is crap to begin with, I just would like to be able to salvage the slide since that costs $60.00 :yikes:
Thanks for any tips,
Mike.
