Title: Broken Butterfly screw
Post by: Goat on June 23, 2017, 05:26:23 PM

So I got Steve's flash and took everything apart to re-install the secondary butterflies only to find that the heads of two screws had broken off and the screw is still in the actuator bar.

Has anyone been able to remove the screws after the head was broken off?  Does anyone have some ideas of how I might go about getting it out?

Without the flies I will only get about 90% of the goodness from the flash and I'm greedy, I want it all!

Any ideas are appreciated.

Best bet would be a used set of throttlebodies from ebay.

Where did the screw heads go?

They are long gone, were taken out years ago.
