Airscrew is stuck

the screwextractor-screw is made out of hard steel and it's surrounded of whats left of the airscrew which is made out of brass, so it'll probably just push the drill to the side and mess up the carb and the threads, but I guess making the hole bigger to the airbox will work just aswell? if not, I could always try drill away a bit of the part of the airscrew that blocks the hole.. or I'll just buy a 32mm mikuni haha :D

for f*ck sake!
when I tried to take the old airscrew out with a so called screw extractor, it broke of, and now it's stuck for sure
only way would be to melt it out since it's made out of brass, but I guess I'll make the hole to the airbox a bit bigger until it runs fine ...

and I'm still waiting on the piston and the cylinder for rebore, hopefully it'll be running until the weekend next week ...........

If you have snapped a screw extractor in there, you are going to struggle doh
