if you have a small set of needle nose pliers, those will work

Did you get the broken pieces out?

If not, that should be your first priority.

And then use a better tool. Should just unscrew, easily.

You could try a small "reverse twist" drill bit and carefully drill it till it spins out.

I still have the small "tit" that actually releases the pressure. You're suggesting breaking that off to get a lefthanded drill bit in the center, correct? (Just want to clarify...)

i had the same problem but i just took some needle nose pliers and got the broke piece out and then took the tool and just work the remaining of it out. idk if i got lucky but it was either that or change fuel rails bc i wanted to race this guy really bad that night!
