Upon attempting to check my SC Fluid yesterday, I found the torx head screw to be rounded. Does anyone have a method for removing these screws? I assume they are aluminum. I have considered trying to cut a new slot in the head and pounding an allen wrench into the screw, but both methods seem undefinate. Any help is appreciated.
Edit: well originally I thought it was a hex too, upon looking at it. However, when I went to Ace for a 3/16 hex and matched it up, I found, without forcing it, that it didn't fit. So I looked again, and I saw torx. Went back into Ace, exchanged for a t-27 torx, and it dropped right in; perfect fit. Unfortunatley it rounded in about an eight of turn. Apparently the previous owner tried this before
