Message	It moves/rocks back and forth a little but as you can see in the photos, I've lost/stripped the center grab point...soI can't seem to rotate it. What type of material is this, how do I drill into it? Any special precautions? The car has been sitting for 3 days in cold weather and I loosened the gas cap...could fuel pressure be "holding" the injector in?
