It has always been my policy to "Open Mouth, Insert Foot"
I've just never heard of the E-Z out method working unless you grind down
the E-Z out to an exact fit that will bottom out in the socket and then
find a way to keep extrene downward preassure in the combination
Extension, Socket, E-Z out.
I've just found that cleaning the sockets and driving in the proper tool
will get better results.
With allen type I've ground down oversized allen and driven them in with
better results.
