Default stuck set screw

My suggested solution is to get a good quality wrench instead, use a lot
of penetrating oil to help first, then apply some heat to the outside of
the boss holding the screw to expand it a little, then it should pop loose.


For the penetrating oil, you won't do better than a spray can of P-B Blaster
from an auto parts store. Great stuff.
