I've had good luck just tapping directly on the head
of clutch head screws with a ballpeen hammer and then
turn the screw to tighten, then loosen, tighten and
then remove. I've also read, but not tried, of heating
(propane torch/soldering iron) the screws, bolts etc
and then touching parrafin wax to the head. This
supposedly draws the melted wax down to the threads
and makes removal possible. If anyone tries this let
us know if it works. Might get a little stinky if the
the rubber seal is involved
Valve grinding compound or a product called Grip Tight
is supposed to add friction to the tip of the driver
and reduce the chance of slipping/stripping the screw
head.
