does anybody have a good idea on how to remove a broken extractor tool tip from a broken ZERK fitting. I am beyond frustrated.
All thanks for the help. A dremel and 2 diamond tip bits later I was successful, if not two successful and ended up having to tap it but the zerk is back on taking grease like a champ

HOpe not too many metal chips got in there…pushed further by the new grease…although this is Not a critical matter.

Yeah I was worried about that but flushed the heck out of it with wd40 and compressed air and put in a ton of grease, greased it till the grease came out red and not black or brown so I hope I got a head of it, if not the area in question will need to be taken down and replaced
