if you have removed one already, slide the functioning jam nut alongside the one thats spinning, add a washer and tighten fully, you should be able to remove the duff one easily afterwards dude.

alternative method..... use a flat tip screwdriver and jam the bugger with the tip.

all else fails, grind the head off, new ones are not Ԛ£
