don't do it that way, it got all fucked up when I tried that, JD weld got all over the place, it was a mess. Go to your hardware store and buy an easy out (reverse drill bit). thread the easyout in there really easily and back it out. Don't try to torque it too hard and definitely do not use any sort of power tools, the easy out will break. Mine came out relatively easily. Good luck.

I remember the first time I did a compression test and almost got the tester stuck. Had the hose coiled like a pasta noodle before it finally broke free. Since then I always lube it up and don't go in very tight :P
