' Mart ' Posted December 27, 2006 Report Share Posted December 27, 2006 stick 5pence in the hole then use extractor, the sqaure taper one will just push through the hole of isis, useing 5pence holds it firm, just dnt expect the 5p to be straight sfter Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dan6061 Posted December 27, 2006 Report Share Posted December 27, 2006 Get a normal crank extractor, and if it doesn't have the piece for ISIS, then use 2 5ps. - Saves bending one. If not, rubber mallet, and brutal force. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
