broken bleeder



I'd think it would be just like removing any broken screw. The big advantage
is you don't have to worry about keeping your drill bits centered since it
already has a centered hole.
I would try to drill it out to a diameter to match the unthreaded part at
the bottom of the bleeder screw (have to measure one of the others). Once
you've drilled it past the threads that should relieve force on the
remaining threads and allow an easy out to be used to finish the job.
Well, at least that's what I'd try.
