| '91 GL radiator bleed screw. Turns but doesn't rise or come out. Doesn't tighten either. I'm assuming it's stripped. How do I remove it? Did a search but didn't find an answer. Thanks in advance for any info. |

Hate to say this but it's new rad time.
The bleed screw goes onto a bush, which is almost certainly turning in the plastic. Given that it's likely because the screw's seized through lack of coolant changes, the rad probably won't be clean inside, either, so not a great loss... |

X2, not much to do but replace the radiator. |
