    Supercharger bleeder screws stripped

    Guest-only advertisement. Register or Log In now!
    I was replacing bleeder screws and stripped the head off of one. I tried to cut a line into it to turn the remainder out with a flat head but the heat has deteriorated the plastic to the point where my flat head would just break it apart and now there’s just pieces of it stuck see photo. If I get most of it out of the threading how bad is it if there is tiny pieces of plastic left over in the system something that may have fallen in that I can’t see?
    Any body have any experience with this any tips would be greatly appreciated thank you image-2022-12-30-17:26:43-900.jpg

    It's fairly easy to remove the supercharger if all else fails. If it were me I'd pull the supercharger and chip the old screw out with it upside down.

    Whoops. Yeah same part, both sides.

    Get them from FCP in case they fail in the future.

    This kit shows the part numbers for all the gaskets. The intercoolers come with the rectangular gasket. I would definitely get coolant pipe o rings. There's an o ring that goes around the round end of the intercooler tank that I would replace too but I'm unsure which is it in this list. Should be 2 of them.

    If you get them at ECS they will say they're stocked but in actuality they may be backordered until June lol. They aren't great about that.
