So, one of my pilot jets has the screw driver slot busted out of it. Anyone have any tricks for getting it out? it is flowing fuel, but I want to replace them with new stock ones (I have a feeling they may have been drilled in a previous life...)

I drilled through the center of one once and then backed out the remaining with a drill spinning in revers
