Broken wand spray jet
« on: February 09, 2011, 10:46:14 am »
I was just in the middle of changing the spray heads on my wand and one of them has sheared with a quarter of the the threaded brass bit still inside the wand head. Any ideas how to get it out?

Try and drive it round with something,failing that it will have to be drilled out and re tapped

You probably need a stud extractor.
Either go and buy one or nip down to your local garage and find a mechanic who will do it in seconds.
