Thanks Ham Bone, I wanted something that would match my wires.
h3lz...I've been using Vice Grips brand vice grips...they shred the fitting. Have been avoiding heat to not ugly up my shine.
Now that I have the screwdriver in, I can't hold the keg down.
Hate to put it in a vice and I sure don't want to install it this way. Might try wrapping it in a towel and sticking it in the vice.

Have you used anu penetrating oil?
There is plenty of room to work on it installed with all the stuff off the engine.

Don't know why I forgot about that. Will go soak it with PB. I agree, It SHOULD be easily fixable once installed.

No, but I will get it figured out. Will take it to a friend with a machine shop. He can fix about anything.
Funny how the simple stuff can be so troublesome.

I put the keg in a vice padded thick with towels, got a big cheater pipe and CCCRRRAAACCCKKK, sounded like the manifold broke...alls well.
Thank you for the help, I appreciate it.
