Re: problem...

You must get an ease-out and back that out of there. If you then want to plug it, that's up to you.

Re: problem...

Yep an easy out should take care of that without a problem. If you dont have one you might be able to rent or use one from Auto Zone or another parts store. That's not a rock in your lifter valley is it? Good luck!!
