Screw Problem

[ckdollar]

Just finished replacing steering cable, and wow does it make a difference!

However, when I was putting the floor back in and screwing it down the screw head fell off leaving me with a stub that I can't get out with pliers. Thoughts on what to do?

Can't reall tell how far it sticks up, and how big it is from the pic. You could try a screw extractor (available at any ace hardware). If it sticks up but not far enough to grab with pliers, try making a slot with a dremel and then screwing it out. you can also try drilling it out. Best of luck.

Get a pair of vice grips. They grab a lot better than an ordinary pair of pliers.

Had same problem, had to take the floor back out, and use vice grips from the bottom of floor and screw it the rest of the way back through. PITA and real slow but it came on through.
