First see if you can spin it out using a tool with a sharp
point. If not get a little tool called an EZ-out (any Auto
Parts store should carry them). You will have to drill a
small hole, about the size of the tip of the EZ-out. Insert
the tool in the hole and rotate CCW. It is tapered and has a
coarse helical taper on the o.d. so you may have to tap it
to get it to dig in enough to rotate the broken off portion.
