Last year when I checked the zinc in my gen there was plenty of 'meat' left so I put it back. I decided to replace it this year and when I attempted it the zinc portion twisted away from the NPT thread. That leaves the zinc part stuck inside the heat exchanger. It's not just floating in there, it's corroded in there. My question is what is the best way to get that out? I have a feeling my only option is to remote the heat exchanger and drill it out. There is a metal pin sticking out but not enough to get a secure bit with vise-grips to pull it out. Should I use something like PB Blaster to get it started?
Ideas appreciated!
